Whiskey Before Breakfast is one of the most popular fiddle tunes at old-time and bluegrass jams, loved for its flowing melody and satisfying chord changes.
Played in D across two parts, it moves through D, G, A, and a touch of Em — a bit more harmonic movement than a typical two-chord breakdown, which makes it a rewarding tune for working on your backup.
