    I did a cover of this for a Halloween ukulele event. People really enjoyed it (probably because it’s simple and haunting and really sticks with you). Thanks for it!

    Beautiful but so sad, Dan. You know it's going to be poignant when a crow appears, I'm very fond of the fellas!!I love the way the banjo drives the melancholy along. Is it the present times that are setting off these lonesome songs?!

      Thanks Dany! I wrote this song a few years ago. It`s a timeless problem though. Baby abandonment. I have tried writing happy songs instead of what just flows naturally but most of them end up sounding contrived and phony.

    I absolutely love this song! I would really love to cover this! I am not skilled enough to learn songs by ear yet, but I do very well with tab. Do you have tab for this that you would be willing to share share with me in a private message? It's ok if you don't want to share, but I had to ask. 😊

      Thank you, I don`t have the tabs, sorry about that. Glad you like the song though and I would be honored if you covered it!

      @DanDDirges it will be a challenge for me to try to figure it out at this stage in my banjo playing! But I am certainly going to give it a try! Such a beautiful, and sad song! I have been listening to you on Bandcamp and when this song came on I just stopped everything I was doing to listen closely. It's absolutely captivating. Thank you for sharing it with everyone!

    thank you this song is really good and inspiring. any way to support you financially ? i listen to a lot of your songs and have fun playing them on the banjo. and it inspires me to create my own songs.

      Thank you! I don`t need money but you have already paid me something much more valuable than money. The fact that you listen and play the songs means so much more. Thank you!
