"Papa's Knee" - arr by Reed and Keener

I think my favorite guitar licks of all time are the licks Reed used in the intro and break for Papa's Knee. I worked hard to learn those, as I know others of you have, but this week I got to wondering how it would sound if Tommy Jones had played it. Well, I ain't no Tommy Jones or Jerry Reed or anything but me, but my experimenting did result in a Slightly different arrangement of the tune:

In addition to dropping the 6th string to D, as Jerry did, I also drop the 3rd string to F#.
