Seldom Scene - Leaving Harlan
I'm looking for the chords (or even better mandolin tabs) for this song. Its been stuck in my head for years. I would like to let it out through the mandolin.
Thanks

Sounds like pretty much a 1-4-1-5, 4-1-1-5-1 type song. Might need a few little tweaks to be perfect.

Re: Seldom Scene - Leaving Harlan
Okay, I finally tracked down the Seldom Scene track. They use a couple chords that weren't in the first version I heard:
Sounds like:
D G D A
D G Em A D
A G D E A (they seem to do a slight syncopation of the chord changes in this line)
D G Em A D
I didn't put any any timing, you'll have to listen to the track to get that.
Hope this helps.(nice song; I don't think I'd heard it.)
I made a few changes and put the file below as a pdf. See 2 replies below.

]I really got going on Leaving Harlan.
Here is a transcription I just did. I think it's close to correct.
See what you think and enjoy.

Re: Seldom Scene - Leaving Harlan
Phil, thanks so much. I appreciate the time that you put into this. I'm glad that you liked the song. For me it bring back all kinds of good memories from a long time ago.
And thanks too, Mick. I'm downloading Best Practice now. Sounds interesting. I suspect that would not be the way to describe Duffy's mandolin style, but 1) his big fingers could fly and 2) he was a real entertainer.
Thanks to you both,
chris

Chris...I believe that song was written by Tom T. Hall and/or his wife and if you Google him there may be some info on the song there....I have heard Tom T. do it and don`t think it should be that hard to figure out....

Willie,
Are you thinking of "Hero in Harlan" by Tom T. Hall?? Different song.
