Lesson featured at ShareOutLoud.com. A finger-style interpretation of Elizabeth Cotten's song Freight Train. Jerry Garcia used to pick this song and played it on the album "Not for Kids Only" with David Grisman.
Nice demo...I love this song...and you have a nice touch. It looks like you're basically playing a C and a G...with some variations....? If I were to strum the tune, would those chords cover it? Do I need an F in there somewhere?
Keep up the good work!

@belikewater001 Thanks for your nice comments. You're right - the first part of the song is playing over C and G. The second part is E7 and F (picked out of Am). I posted the chords and notation at ShareOutLoud... see the link in description.
