Tuning:

I have no idea what the other version of this tab is about, maybe there is more than one version of the song. I sat down with the "Lonesome, On'ry and Mean" album and came up with this. It's my first tab, but I think it at least will give you the basic structure and chords of the song. Artist: Waylon Jennings Song: Lay Me Down Verse:
