Hard Times Come Again No More Audio Example and Tab

 This version is in second position and requires bending (" means bend 
a whole step). The audio example is played in the key of D on a G harp 
and has a few ideas for embellishing the tab below. Hope y'all have as 
much fun with this tune as I have!
