This song was requested by Twocatsam in the request a song thread. I added a subtle percussion track with the Cajon for this song to jazz it up a little. This song was a real challenge to play and sing at the same time due to the complexity of the finger-picking and the subtle pull-offs as well. I really like the guitar arrangement in this song and it really makes me appreciate how much we lost when Jim Croce was lost o us early in life.
Sam, thanks for requesting this tune and I hope you enjoy it.
Hey Buddy,
Very nice work on this. I have been working on it for a few weeks off and on and I am finding it deceptively difficult to keep the picking pattern going and doing it up to speed. Also the little turn-around lick at the end of each verse leading from the D back to the A I find very hard to pull off. You did a lot better than I am doing so far, nice job getting through it. It would be fun to learn both parts and be able to put them together at some point. I haven't started working on the second part at all yet. You?
Have a great holiday and keep 'em coming into the new year!

Scott, As you said this is a more difficult song than one would think, keep plugging away at it and it will call come together. I have not worked on the second guitar part yet but I hope to tackle it in the next week or so. It really helped me to play this along with the original recording to capture the feel of it. I slowed it down a little to give it a little more of a jazz feel.
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well,
Bud

You're getting better all the time Buddy. It's hard for me to even think the words while I try to play that song. How are you getting the black background in your video? Is that skillful recording or editing magic? It's a really nice effect.
