Hey, gang! I wanted to share this tune that my buddy and I have been playing-- it's a slack key arrangement of a lullaby from Taiwan called 搖嬰仔歌 (literally translates as 'Shake the Baby.' But don't shake the baby!)

Here's the tab for it. http://docdro.id/IlL8EFo It's in Taro Patch. We left the tab pretty bare bones, so feel free to add your touches and ornaments to it.

We've been playing it with the accompanying guitar fretted at the 5th fret, since the tune lives in the lower end of the neck. (Let me know if you get around to plucking this out, I'd love to hear what you did!)

Glad you enjoyed! My friend tells me that that's like the 'Rock a Bye Baby' of Taiwan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7tDs44drq4
