***Revised 4/5/17*** I went back over this in detail and completed the full song today. "Oh No, Not Another One!" is off the late Doug Sahm's great CD "The Return of Wayne Douglas". If you like honky tonk pedal steel buy this album!!! My buddy Tommy Detamore's pedal steel is OUTSTANDING. The first 3 pages of this and the first line on Page 4 are Tommy D approved - he went over every note of this section with me. He's been really busy with studio work and gigs lately but at some point we'll put out some more "authorized" tabs for you "Doug-heads" off this great album. Corrections and comments are always welcome.

Jeff Garden, you are a prince. Mr. Sahm's sentiments on this song are still true and only matched by Mr. Detamore's fantastic tracks. I might learn something, as well! |

page 5 first stanza...could the slide from 13 to 12 on strings 3 and 5 be a slide from 13 to 12 on 4 and 3 with E dropped? my ears could be playing tricks because I can only play it at half speed! |

Hey Dave...I remember listening to that a bunch at the time and couldn't quite come up with it. I just tried it again - there's sort of a counterpoint thing going on with strings 3 and 4. F would be the raise on string 4. How does this sound to you?

hmmm...now i had to really slow it down. it's tricky because there's a stereo delay on the steel, so i think it gives a false sense of contrary motion. when i tried to find the individual notes in the slide, here's what i came up with...

Good, Dave. That's one way to get the right notes.
Another common way to do that major-to-seventh-chord lick is to stay on strings 3 and 4 instead of 2 and 3; just engage the E-lower lever to get the same notes. So you've got AB down and the E's lowered. Slide to 11, then to 10 while simultaneously releasing the A-pedal. This lands you on the common position for playing the A7 chord (B-pedal and E-lower lever at 10th fret). |

Thanks for taking the time to nail this down Dave and Tucker...NOW I'm hearing it As you said, Tucker, the 2nd string and 4th string lowered are the same note but I think I like the sound and playability better on the 4th string. So I think it looks like this...
OK, on to the second half of the song when I get a few minutes. |

***check out the revised tab in the original post*** I had some time and went back over (and in some cases edited) everything I'd initially posted through the break and then completed the rest of the tune today. Enjoy - Tommy D's honky tonk steel is as good as it gets! |

Hi Jeff,
I found that this passage can also be played with the tab I circled in yellow, it sounds the same and for me the notes just seem easier to play so I thought I'd share it.

Hi Jeff,
Getting to the end of this great song and I noticed the E chord at the third fret is missing the A pedal. Thanks for tabbing this, that's a fun song to play.

Jeff - I’m one more big fan of the tabs you’ve done and shared on the forum. It’s a great entryway into Tommy’s wonderful steel playing. |
