"Swannanoa Tunnel" Traditional Banjo Lesson

Get the TAB 👉   / cliftonhicks  
I learned "Swannanoa Tunnel" from several Library of Congress recordings of Reta Spradlin (The Pea Fowl), Roscoe Holcomb (Swanno Mountain), and Bascam Lamar Lunsford. Merle Travis famously recorded it under the title, "Nine Pound Hammer." Doc Watson (and numerous others) have recorded it as "Roll On Buddy."

"When you hear my pistol firing
Another ***** gone, honey, another ***** gone,
When you hear my pea fowl calling
Somebody died, honey, somebody died."
