Gone Country - Alan Jackson
---------------------------
(Bob McDill)
As a source I used the submission of: theTone@stpc.wi.LeidenUniv.nl
(theTone)
of 20 Feb 1995.
He explains that the riff is not the correct picking, so I looked into
it:
G D C

Play the riff between | and | 4 times. Use 3rd and 4th finger for the G
chord
in the riff (3rd fret B and E string) and leave those fingers there thru
the whole riff.
Also play the G chord thru the whole song as follows: E A D G B E
