COMMENT THIS CRAP. :)

This is what i have come up with so far. this is my first post so i expect that there will be many errors,
but please just tell me and not be hateful :).
i just posted this little piece to make sure i was on the right track, 
and to get a little help to finish it on out if nobody minds helping me. 
this song and kentucky jelly is my favorites from his new album PLAY.

Thats a great start. This is my far the best song on the album in my opinion. I think he throws some chords mixed in there, but your definately on the right track. I'm one of the ones wishing Brad would do a gospel album with this, when we all get to heaven, old rugged cross, in the garden. I think his hymns are his best music. Someone who can finish this tab or critique it PLEASE DO SO! -concordeer \| 12/3/2008
good start, don't forget, it's in Drop D!!! -jocainerocks \| 1/10/2009
hi, i can add a bit: just the little harmonic picking of the main melody about 8 seconds into the song. i'm in love with this song right now, so i'll try to add more as i dissect it :) E-----------------------------------------12------------------------ B---------------------------12----7-----------------12--------------- G-----------------------------------------------7-----12------------- D----------7---12---7------7--------------------12------------- A-------------------------------------------------------------------- D----12----------------------------------------------------------- -sharonah \| 1/30/2009
