Default Waiting Around to Die - Townes Van Zandt Cover

I'll admit that I'm not too familiar with TVZ but I came across this song a few weeks ago really liked it and decided to give it a try. I tried playing this a few different ways (fingerpicked, muted strings) and this is what I ended up with.
As always feedback and comments (good or bad) are most welcome.


I'm in the process of remodeling my basement room so the wall to my left has become an oversized scribble pad for my daughter! You may actually be able to read some words by viewing in HD

Thanks
Ryan

Ryan,

That was a very nice performance. I liked your vocals on this.

No daughter just recently got into scribbling and lately we're buying larger and larger canvases for her art.

Thanks Jeremy, hopefully she doesnt continue using the wall as her canvas once the room is finished

Thanks very much. Not being much into Country music, this is the only song I've heard from him. I'll have to explore more of his material.
