Hi Buddy,

Nice job. You definitely have the voice for this song. One of my favorites. I don't recall seeing you use a thumb pick in other posts. How do you like it?


Thanks for sharing
Bob

Tommy, You had me laughing with your post. Glad you and Lesley enjoyed this, give her a hug for me :-)

Bob, I prefer this with the thumb pick because it brings out the base a little more and adds to the chorus. Thanks for checking this out,

Bud

Very nice Bud. I recall you posting this one before, I think this is an update? The guitar work is very clean I think. I have heard this tune from Garth Brooks, but it didn't have that last verse, about pulling the pistol from the drawer. Was it dropped from the recorded version?

Anyway, it was great.

Great choice for your voice and style Buddy and well played and sung again. All that was missing was a cowboy hat... bet you've got one of those!

Tony,

Garth added the last verse to song later for the live version as they had him cut it out for the studio version.

Chris, glad you enjoyed this one. Very funny about the cowboy hat.

Good one Buddy, this song really fits your voice. The thumb picks help, I can't get the hang of one yet

Pete,

Thanks, that thumb pick to some getting used to for me as well. It feels really clumsy at first.

Hey Buddy,

This is one of two G.B. songs that I know! I think you did a great job on it.
I was going to ask about the thumb pick as well. Do you recommend using one? Has it helped?
