My take on one of my Favorite Chet Atkins arrangements.

I wore out a part of my Fingerstyle Guitar LP learning this one. Fortunately, I found another copy at a thrift store...and then I got it on CD. This song is older than I am and I only play it when I'm " In The Mood". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz6qhAZj8qw

Thanks, Chuck. It sure is fun to try and play these songs in Chet's style.

Ray, that was nice! I know that finger placement with the right hand makes a big difference with this one!
Once you combine that with a busy thumb, it's harder than rubbing your stomach and patting your head at
the same time! Oh, I should also include chewing gum! :D

Thanks, Rande. I appreciate it. I did try that rubbing my stomach and patting my head while chewing gum...I'll be out of traction in a short time...just kidding. :D

Ray, I was about to add you to my prayer list! I'm glad that you ended with "just kidding"! :-)

Just kidding! :lol:
