I first heard this tune at old-time jams on the East Coast, then heard it again at a jam in San Diego Saturday. I spent yesterday looking for a guitar lesson on youtube, and couldn't find one, though there are plenty of people playing it on fiddle, mandolin, clawhammer banjo, and hammered dulcimer. I thought it was a traditional tune, but one of the youtube videos credits Peter Lippincott in 1985 with writing it.

Here is the chord structure:

Ax2
|D / / / |A / / /|D / / / |D / / / |
|D / / / |A / / /|D / A / |D / / / |
Bx2
| C / G /|D / / /| C / G /|D / / /|
| C / G /|D / / /| D / A/| D / / /|
