Learn to play Shady Grove on guitar. This arrangement of the melody is based on the way the song is sung. You will be "playing the syllables". Use the Tunefox player and lyrics in the guitar tab to get a good understanding of how it's supposed to sound before playing it on your instrument. Use the difficulty slider if the full version is a little tough.
The rhythm of the melody here is a bit complex, so is the picking pattern. Make sure to follow the pick directions and fingerings in the guitar tablature. After you get a hang of the arrangement, check out some licks to add some melodic variation.
