Anyone know where to find an ABC Format or MIDI for this song?
I have the lyrics and tabs. Ed

Is that from the Browns? Beautiful song if it is.

Australians Karen Lynne & Martin Louis have as good a version as there is out there, written by Hod Pharis, by the way.

25 second sample on Karen Lynne's page here.

While you are there, explore the rest of her stuff. Very good.

Dear Ed and Dale and GUEST: Thank you for

1) starting this thread
2) locating an mp3
3) reminding me of how much I loved this song back when I was about 12 years old. It is a great song--well written and the play back and forth between the voices is beautiful. I have added it to favourites and now I'll be able to listen to it when the fancy strikes me. YIPPEE.

John Herald and Frank Wakefield did a great job on an old Greenbriar Boys album too.

Refresh - Anyone - I'm still looking for the melody line - MIDI, ABC Format, printed score, whatever written form.   Ed

Well, a mixture of two sites, but it does link to the cowboy lyrics site.

If you go to All Music Guide, search for the Greenbriar Boys, click on Best of Vanguard Years and click on 'speaker' icon, you will get a short sample. You must log in. All in all, a bit of a pain, but the song is there.
