Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
This is a slow mournful blues number about hard times with the apparent only hope of them ending
being when he's called home by the Lord. This is my interpretation off the Guy Davis "Legacy" album:
The Guy Davis recording is in the key of D and appears to be played on a 12-string guitar.
Some D chords can be replaced by a D9 chord depending on the feel the player wants to give this song.
