An improv'ed arrangement of this old standard I did in a very slightly jazzy fingerstyle.
Dadfad's major genres are acoustic old-time and folk styles.

Story behind the song
I was asked by a friend to do an arrangement of this old standard and a tab to go with it. Other versions he found were mostly jazz-comp chording and he wanted one more fingerstyle-intensive.
