Here`s another nice old-time fiddle tune, The Growling Old Man and Old Woman,
in an arrangement adapted from a hammered dulcimer arrangement. Some people
play the part I have labeled as Part B first.
Fiddlers usually play this in A, so capo at the second fret.
|-3-| is a triplet. (D/F) means D or F. -1p0- means pull off from 1 to 0.
-3/4- means slide from 3 to 4.

I poked at it with a stick.
