Anyone have an E9 tab for the intro on this ? I can make it sound close, but it seems to me like I am missing something over the iii chord....Thanks...James

The last two notes aren't really in that intro... I just thought it was kinda cool.

The other thing that's essential in the steel part in this tune, imho, is the beautiful swoop from the V chord to the IV, using a major seventh chord for the IV, after the words "just what I've got on" and before "When that sun is high in the Texas sky"...

Weldon Myrick on the original studio cut, I think ?

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your time to assist me with this tune. I really love the tune and I do it on Tele, but thats no where near as nice as a fiddle or steel doing it...Thanks again....James
