Chords with lyrics
Unlce Sam Blues - Hot Tuna from first album, recorded live Sept. 1969 written out by Jim in Cleveland ([email protected]) This is only my impression of the song. I’m not able to transcribe Jorma’s fingerpicking fills or solos. The tab below is designed to give the rhythm of this 12 bar blues in A, by using your pinkie to add a rhythm note to the A augmentedA and D MajorD chords. 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- BB -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G+G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D MajorD -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A augmentedA -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E MajorE ------------------------------------- Got my questionnaire baby
