Simon and Garfunkle's 'America'

This is an arrangement I made of the Paul Simon song 'America'.  I always loved this tune.  The humming at the beginning and the harmony on the line "...over an open field" always give me chills.  Not sure if my banjo arrangement captures that same magic but it was a nice exercise and challenge working it out.  It's played out of standard tuning but in the key of D.
