Beautiful gentle rendition of this gem of a song. I only recently discovered this song and I can’t stop playing it ❤

[@HarrisTrevorJ]

Wow, great all around, tears are flowing. Passionate guitar and inflections on vocals spot on!

Love this

[@gregcarrier8662]

Beautifully done, but the recording quality of your more recent videos is noticebly better. I'd love to see a new version of this one.

Please perform a cover of the song Carmelita (Warren Zevon)?!

[@bartok75]

My Top 5 Joni song. Beautiful rendition. I'd love to find the tabs for that song (or for any other Joni song). May I ask, how you figure out the way to play these songs, Dianne?

[@diannebeal-amick4145]

Sure! You can find most all of Joni’s songs and tunings in her songbook, Joni Mitchell complete, So Far. Her tunings are also listed on her web page.

@@diannebeal-amick4145 Thank you.

[@williamlewis8741]

50 some years ago, i'm in my dorm room at university listening to joni mitchell and dawntreader. this is fantastic !! are you able to share the tuning that you're employing ? i'll close my eyes and i'm transported back to the good times, good music and the sound that the rigging makes

[@diannebeal-amick4145]

Sure! The tuning is DGDDGD it a very odd tuning and I don’t remember running into on any other song. It came out of Joni Mitchell Complete So Far songbook.

[@aphrodisy918]

hi dianne! do you have a tutorial? you are such a beautiful player

[@diannebeal-amick4145]

I’ve been thinking about doing some tutorials. Did you have something in mind you would like to learn? And thank you😽!

[@bartok75]

@@diannebeal-amick4145 How about The Dawntreader? ;) Seems like it's managable for an intermediate guitar player.
