I know its hard tryin to put a song written for about 4mandolins and
a guitar onto one instrument but here ya go anyway.

The |Am6 Am Am7|Am6 Am| thing is
basically just Aminor with the 6ths and 7ths bein the mandolin notes.

For the |D|D|D|D| thing, ya could play it (xx0235) to start off with,

then play around with the A, G and F# on the high E string, to try and
sound like the mandolin does on the record.

Aswell as that, the 4 Aminors at the very start, and the Aminor
with the E, D# and D bass notes could be arpeggiated like the CD.


Anyway, here goes:
