Song: I'm Ready
Artist: Muddy Waters
Transcriber: Carl

  There are 2 versions of this song that I know of. One is a moderately
fast shuffle on The Best of Muddy Waters(This Is The Version Most People
Know), then there is a really fast version on The London Muddy Waters
Sessions with a horn section and stuff. I'm not sure of the key, but I
think its D (thats what I have it here in). I really only did this so
people would know the lyrics, which are hard to understand. You can play
it in any key you want, just have fun.
