BANJO TAB, NOT GUITAR
Sawmill tuning, GDGCD. A step down Sawmill FCFBbC is my prefered but either are fine
these first 2 brushes very fast, might be difficult to get used to.
I play the top 4 strings as a slow strum instead of picking, and use the thumb for the high g.

Song repeats as many times as you have verses for.
This video from Clifton Hicks helped me, check it out.
Not exactly the same but it might help. He is also playing in FCFBbC
Like he says at the end as well, listen to alot of versions, come up with something that sounds good
to you :)
