WAVERLY. AKA - "Waverley." Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Missouri. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. A similar tune is “Hell Agin' the Barn Door (2).” However, Galbriath family lore has it that the tune is an old Scottish tune, perhaps associating it not only with the town of Waverly, Lafayette County, central Missouri, but perhaps also with Waverley (1814), an early novel by Sir Walter Scott. Art Galbraith (1909-1993) originally had the tune from his Uncle Tobe, but, since it wasn’t part of his on-going repertoire, he had to remember it and re-learn it later in life. The second strain is irregular.
