Maybe I just need some theory lessons but if I have it on paper then I can play it but I can't for the life of me figure it out on my own.

Thanks!

My request for clarification:

And still am.

It would have been nice if you had clarified what you were looking for earlier when asked. Just sayin'...

Good luck. Don't blister the finish on your guitar sitting too close to that campfire.

I think that I was drinking.

Your response:
Now I was getting sleepy.

And now:
Most youtube instruction videos for this song when played with a single guitar incorporate some treble string picking but it is rarely explained and difficult to clearly see the fingers.

Yeah, but if I knew exactly what I was looking for then maybe I would not have had to ask.

We are all different with different goals

Do you often use drink as an excuse? I'm not criticizing, but would be concerned if that's really the case. If it was intended as humor I can assure you it's not funny.

Simple walk ups or walk downs should be sufficient, and those are usually really easy to figure out because:

1. You are in a key, the scale of which consists of seven notes. Your example is the key of G and the scale is G-A-B-C-D-E-F#
2. Usually chords in a tune are made from those notes.
3. In a walk up or walk down you can safely just use notes from the scale – often just one or two of them, and usually moving from the lowest note of the first chord to the lowest note of the second chord. Of course this is assuming there are scale notes between the chords.
4. So for example going from a G chord to a C chord use walk up notes A to B between playing those chords.

This is a quite simplified way of doing things yet it is very commonly done and usually sounds just fine. Google the subject. There is a tons of info and examples out there.

Kept scrolling up and down this tread in hope of finding this song tab'ed exclusively in open chords..

Free online chords and lyrics can be a bit of a hit and miss.
