\f0\fs24 \cf0 MY FIRST LOVER,  Gillian Welch, Dave Rawlings\
\
\
\
\
I couldn't find any tabs of this song so I decided to make one. Its one of the songs I wanted to learn when I first started playing banjo. \
I hope this helps some people. \
If you have any improvements to make, please feel free to do so.  \
I haven't tabbed Dave Rawlings's guitar playing in the song, just given some chords.  Banjo is played claw hammer style.\
\
Guitar has a capo on 2 and is basically just a repeat of A and C (or what is actually B and D because of capo) with a bit of stompin' beat to it.\
