## Formatting and source decisions

New dark-shelf entry. D/A7 chords, key D, Brad’s Double C/capo 2 note, dulcimer start, and repeat cues are preserved. No extra verses, historical dates, specific recording attribution, or transposition have been added.

Lyrics and existing chord placement are preserved. Verse/chorus directives become readable headings on the website; comments remain performance cues. This is the band’s working version, not a requirement to match a historical singer’s wording.

## Working arrangement

- Chord vocabulary: D, A7

Dulcimer start; opening break. Brad: Double C, capo 2. The supplied chart is labeled key D and uses D/A7; the instrument-specific capo note is retained without transposing those chords.
