Angeline the Baker - traditional (print w/ Courier) On this arrangement I used a lot of open strings to get the effect of a fiddle drone. If you find this difficult to play at first, try leaving out some of the open strings that go with the melody notes. The melody is always on the top. Try holding the pick a little looser on the eighth notes where there are three strings being played. This isn't a breakdown so keep the tempo loose as well. This tune is in D here but is often played in G -- just move everthing down on string if that's the key you want to play it in. -----2-3-| -----0-0-| -----0-0-| ---------| |_| D G -5---2---0-----0-|-2---0-----0-2-3-|-5---2---0-------|-------------2-3-| o0---0---0---5---|-0-5---4-5-0-0-0-|-0---0---0---5---|-2-----------0-0-| o0---0-----------|-0---------0-0-0-|-0---0---0---0---|-0---------------| -----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-0---------------| | | | |_| |_|_|_| |_|_|_| | | | | | | | |_| _________________ |1.
