I like to use this piece as a closing for my shows and usually play it on a 12 string; although a 6-string would work fine also. This piece is pretty up-tempo and consists of around 6 different themes interlaced together. I usually don't play the darn thing the same way twice, but the TAB here represents the most common embodiment of the tune. The opening theme is actually a portion of John Fahey's version of John Henry; thus the title of the tune, since it all started from working out that piece. But from that point on, it diverges pretty significantly. It's fun to play and will give your fingers a workout. ÿÿCGuitarAcoustic Guitar (nylon)h@(Open D>962-&ÿÿ CFloatingTextOpen D tuning: DADF#AD¦[*Times New Roman ¼ÿÿ CGuitarInÿÿ CTempoMarkerx ÿÿCSectionSymbol € ÿÿCSection2 Ú€ÿÿCStaff-$ÿÿ CPositionÿÿ CLineData €€ €"€€"d€€ €€%€€…€€€%€€`€!€@€ €€%€ €€`€ !€@€ € € € €"€€"d€€ €€%€€…€€€%€€`€!€@€€€%€€€`€!€@€€ €€ €"€€"d€€ €€%€€…€€€%€€`€ !€@€!€#€"€€`€#!€@€$€"€%€€`€&!€@€€€€€ €‚d€€…€€€`€€€…€€ €`€ €…€ €€`€ €€€€ € €‚d€€…€€€`€€€…€€ €`€€…€€€`€€€€€€ €‚d€€…€€€`€€€…€€ €`€!€ƒ€"€€`€$€€‚€%€ €`ÿÿ CMusicBar €Q–€€A–€€A €2ô ·€A€9#€€ €€€`€!€@€€£€€€`€!€@€€ €€€`€!€@€ € € € €"€ €"d€ € €€%€€…€€€%€€`€!€@€€"€€€`€!€@€€ €€€`€!€@€€"€€€`€!€@€€€€€ €€£€!€`€ € €!€€`€"!€@€#€ €$€ €"d€€€€€€`€€€£e€€ €`€€ €€€`€ €€€€ € €‚d€ €…€ €€`€€€…€€ €`€€‚€€€`€€€€€€ €`€€‚€€€`€€€€€€ €£e€ € €!€€`€#€€€€$€ €‚–€ €A–€€A €2Ñ †€A€!9$€€ƒ€€€`€!€#€€#€€€€ €€€€€€`€!€€ €€ €€ € €"€ €€€€`€!€ €€"€€€€`€!€ €€€€€`€!€ €€ €€ €"d€€ƒ€€€`€!€#€€#€€€€ €€ €€!€€`€"!€€#€€$€€%€ €"€€ƒ€€€`€€€ƒ€€ €`€€ €€€`€ €€ € € €`€ € €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€€€€ €‚€€ƒ€€€`€€€ƒ€€ €`€ € €!€€`€#€€ €%€ €`–€ €A–€€A €2  n€Aÿÿ CDirection @“ ‚€*9!€€€€€`€!€ €€"€€€€`€!€ €€€ € € €€ € €`€ €€€€`€!€)€€)€€€€€!€)€€ €€€`€!€*€€*€€ €€ €!€*€€€€€`€!€)€€)€ €€!€ €€"€'€$€'€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€ €€ € € €`€ € €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€ €!€ €`€"€ €#€€`€$€€ €%€ €`–€ `€A–€€A €2ˆ d€A“ B €09 &€€€€€`€!€)€€)€€€€€!€)€€ €€€`€ !€ € € € €*€ € €`€€€€€`€!€)€ €)€€ €'þd€ €€%€€€€€ €€ € €€ € €€€€€`€!€'€€'€ €€!€€"!€'€#€€$€€%€`€&!€€'€ €(€€)€`€*!€'€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€ €€ € € €`€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€ €!€ €`€#€ €%€€`€'€€ €)€ €`–€ €A–€‚€A €2~ D €A€*9 )€€€€€€`€!€€€ €€€€`€!€'€€€ €€ €€€€€`€!€€€ €€€€`€!€ €€€€€€`€!€€€ €€€€`€!€ €€€€€ €`€!!€€"€ €#€€$€`€%!€ €&€€'€€`€(!€ €)€"€*€€+€`€,!€ €€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ € €€`€ €€ € € €`€ € €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ €€€`€€€ €€ €`€€ € €€`€"€€ €$€ €`€&€ €'€€`€)€€ €+€ €`–€ €A–€€A €2^ € €!9#€€€€€`€!€ €€"€€€€ €`€€%€€€`€ !€@€ €…€ €%€ €`€ !€€€…€€%€€`€!€€€…€€€€`€!€@€€#€€€`€!€#€€ƒ€€€€`€!€#€€€€€`€ !€€!€ƒ€"€#€#€`€$!€@€€ €€ €€…€€ €`€ €…€ € €`€€…€€ €`€€…€€ €`€€ƒ€€ €`€€ƒ€€ €`€€ƒ€€ €`€!€ƒ€#€ €`–€`€P –€€@  €2-  €@ “& €9#€€"€€€`€!€"€€‚€€€€`€!€"€€‚€€"€ €`€ !€€ €‚€ €"€ €`€!€@€€€€€`€!€ €€"€€€€`€!€ €€€€ €€€€`€!€ €€€€€`€ !€ €!€"€"€€#€`€$!€ €%€€€‚€€ €`€€‚€€ €`€€‚€ € €`€ €‚€ € €`€€ €€ €`€€ €€ €`€€ €€ €`€€ €€ €`€€ €€ €`€!€ €#€ €`€%€ €&€ €`–€€@ –€‚€ €2+ á`€P“@€9"€€g€€€g€!€E€€E€€ €€ €g€€e€€€e€!€C€ €C€ € € € €`€ €b€€€b€!€C€€C€€A€€ €b€€@€€ €`€€ €€ €`€€g€€€g€!€E€€E€€ €€ €g€€e€€€e€ !€C€!€C€"€ €#€ €` €€ €€ €€ € € € € €€ €€ €€ €€ €€ €€ €!€ –€ €@–€€@ €2û §€@€9(€€e€€€e€!€G€€G€€ €€ €e€€€€ €`€€ € € €`€ €…€ €€`€!€@€€€€€ €€`€!€@€€ƒ€€ €€`€!€@€€€€€ €€`€!€@€€‚€€ €€`€!€@€ €‚€!€ €"€`€#!€@€$€€€%€€`€&!€@€'€€€(€ €)€`€*!€@ €€ €€ €€ €€ € €…€€€€€ƒ€€€€€‚€ €‚€$€€€'€€–€ ‚€@–€ `€@–€€@ €2Á Œ €@““€'9"€€¥€€€`€!€@€€ €€ €€`€!€@€€£€€ € €`€ !€@€ € € € € €`€!€@€€¢€€ €€`€!€@€€¢€€ €€`€!€@€€€€ €`€€ €€ €`€€€€€`€!€)€ €)€!€ €'þd€#€%€% €€%€@€`€€€€¥€€ €€£€ € €€¢€€¢€€ €€ €€ €€ €`€ € €"€ €`€#€ €% € –€€@–€‚€@ €2¦ s  €@€09 €€€%€@€`€€€ € @€,@€L@€l@€Œ@€ €@€'@€G@€g@€‡@€ €@€%@€E@€e@€…@€€A€%A€EA€eA€…A€€ € €¬@€ €§@€ €¥@€€¥A–€€@–€€@€Untitled!h@Bass+&!€ €2 }€€ ArialTimes New RomanTimes New Roman
