In fact way back in 2000 we did that song at a bar on there deck after people had been drinking and it was one of them hot stickey nights they about torn the bar apart. The only time where you can’t play the Lester Flatt roll is when the melody goes up to the 1st string, as in measures 7, 8 and part of 9. After each of these melody notes, merely play the 5th string quickly after each melody note. Each Tunefox banjo Take Me Home, Country Roads tab contains real-sounding backing tracks.
I am just getting the melody going I love bluegrass and all that i stands for. Your teaching and learning is spot on and I really like how you are getting people to do the melody and the picking form themselves. I really get it that we can never remember all the songs but we can learn to play like the good old boys.

In case you do modify a tab and redistribute it, please ADD your name to the credits in the tablature's 'notes' field. Instead of writing out a complicated banjo arrangement with all the rolls incorporated into the song, I only write out the bare-bones skeleton of the tune. That way, we can “dress” the skeleton with different rolls each time we play it. That means we’ll be improvising and our music still stay new and fresh instead of old and stale.
Take your playing to the next level with the help of a local or online banjo teacher. Of course, each of these books teaches a variety of ways to dress up the naked skeleton of a wide variety of bluegrass, old-time, folk and gospel tunes. I believe you’ll get the hang of this once you listen to me playing it on the banjo.
Bluegrass Banjo Lesson: Take Me Home, Country Roads
It's good to learn the melody on the first five frets, then up the neck. Eventually transferring the melody from low position to up the neck will be come more comfortable once you start to recognize how the chord shapes and patterns change.

If you’re new to my way of writing tab, let me point out that the five horizontal lines represent the strings, which are numbered on the left. Of course, your short string is the 5th string. The numbers on the strings tell you what fret to play on the string. Let’s learn to pick a simple version of “Country Roads” on the banjo.
Take Me Home Country Roads (John Denver) Banjo Tab in G
Everything else is a single note with a vertical stem either pointing up, or hanging down. It doesn’t matter which way the stem points. These notes are quarter notes, and get one beat each. You can decorate those quarter notes with a simple roll that gets one beat. Somethings are just better Scruggs Style. Playing up the neck is a great challenge for many.
If you are a beginner banjo player, I recommend that you start a new song or tune by learning to play the bare melody first, rhythmically on time. For that purpose, you can switch off the banjo track in your Tabledit viewer and play along the rhythm track. As step #2, add the chords or left-hand fingering as provided by the tab, but still just play the melody. The third step would be adding complete rolls.

Members can also export all of their banjo Take Me Home, Country Roads arrangements into PDF files. Banjo tabs are a great way of getting to know and analyzing somebody else's playing style, and getting inspiration from it. Remember, though, not to be a tab slave, that is, feel free to modify any tab to suit your personal anatomy / musical preference.
Be sure to play all the notes on the 2nd, 3rd strings with your right thumb. On the notes that are tied together, just play those notes with no roll. In my way of writing out tab, there’s only two kinds of notes. At the very beginning of line one, you’ll see two notes that are tied together with little lines.
All my 5-string banjo tabs are written for 3-finger picking, mostly in Scruggs style; however, styles may vary and often comprise passages in melodic style. My own arrangements usually contain more than one break, and many of them contain/are an up-the-neck break. I have been playing banjo now for three years.
Thanks so much for keeping this alive, I promise to do the same when I get better. Explore thousands of interactive sheet music titles with pro-quality backing tracks, plus powerful tools for learning, playing, recording, sharing and performing. I’d love to get the tablature for the verses of country roads. I have both banjo and Mandolin tabs for the song. Country roads, rocky top, foggy mtn breakdown, of course matching banjos.
