"I Am A Pilgrim" in cross, it has a super juicy walk up to the 3 double bend where it then sustains on the word Pilgrim. The song is from the playing of the late great Merle Travis. Merle Travis said: "I first heard a version of this song from Lyman Rager, who learned it while he was in the Elkton, Kentucky jail. I rewrote it, rearranged it, and added to it." (quoted in Dorothy Horstman,*Sing Your Heart Out, Country Boy*, newly revised & expanded ed. (Country Music Foundation Press, 1996, p. 48)

Any songs that help playing 3 draw bends to pitch? Specifically, a non-harmonica to play along with? There has to be a head or motif in a song that requires as such. Thanks!
