Product Description

Skating Away by Ian Anderson and progressive rock band Jethro Tull was realased on the 1974 album War Child. The song was positively received by critics and music writers alike for both composition and the haunting lyrics.

Arranged for mountain dulcimer in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning and suggested for Intermediate players and above. The 1+ fret is required. The chord shapes are familar and easily achievable as the melody stays nice and low on the fretboard. The challenge for this song will be in the syncopated rhythms.

My suggestion: become familiar with the song's lyrics. This will greatly help with timing since the melodic line matches the lyrics almost exactly. The old adage, "if you can sing it, you can play it", really applies.
