Default While My Guitar Gently Weeps

Could someone point me to a good solo guitar arrangement for this song? I heard this YouTube Link, and I really like this one:

Thanks!

Lawrence Juber's version is along these lines, but I think he is in DADGAD tuning making it a real learning adventure.

I have it in Juber's "The Guitarist Anthology", volume 1 - it is in DADGAD.

Here is a youtube of him playing the tune:

Rick, looking for that Juber book reminded me of a song I learned about eight or nine years ago that I really, really, like - Doyle Dykes - "Self Portrait on Acoustic Guitar". Here is Doyle playing it.

Thank-you both! I think I like her version better, but the dadgad version is nice.

Eric Roche did an arrangement also in DADGAD

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VV1jPh7vWNo

and Thomas Leeb did his version in CGDGAD

But you can't go wrong with a LJ arrangement.

Pete Huttlinger has an arrangement that has a lot in common with what Gabriella is playing in your link. Standard tuning and a lot of the same chord shapes.
