Don slides up to the 5th position (A-shape) D-chord because Don likes to keep it simple, especially when he's playing rhythm and singing, too.

This is a quintessential Don Rich lick - it appears in so many Buck Owens songs (Act Naturally, for one), and all over country music - you can really hear it good in "6 Days on the Road".

It's easy, it fits, and you can do it while playing live for TV and singing backup...
