The version I am tabbing out is based off of the Earl Scruggs and Lester Flatt version.
Also Billy Connolly does a fantastic rendition. Highly recommended.
pretty darn close.
This song is fairly easy to play and is absolutely a blast. Enjoy!
I also recommend muting some of the notes as well to get a bit more gritty bluegrass
feel to it.

There are a lot of different improvisations you can do off of these licks that are a lot
