Don't have any info on it, but that tune was Wayne King's theme song ( the waltz king ) I went to see him in the late 40s, here at the old local( long gone now) auditorium...

James, I know you want tab but take a listen to Jerry Byrd's break on Ferlin Husky's version.
Starting at 1:30 Pretty cool!

There will never be another Ferlin or Jerry Byrd . Jerry had such a wonderful touch , I listen to most all of his recordings . I have both of his teaching books and I have worked on every one of the songs and wish I could play one fraction of the way he played . As popular as that waltz was and is , there must be someone out there that has the tabs for lap steel in the key of C !! I have about given up Duane . Thank you for the info on the video's they are great to watch and listen to. I put them in my favorites .
Many BLESSINGS my FRIEND and Thank You Again .

James, I'll give it a try and tab you out a version of The Waltz. C6 tuning, and send me the names of your strings-6 or 8 string?
