Honey Babe Blues chords by Doc Watson

Chords with lyrics

Song: Honey Babe Blues
Artist: Doc Watson
Transcribed by: Steve Sladkowski ([email protected])
From The Album: Pickin' The Blues (1985)

As you are probably aware, Doc Watson is a mostly fingerstyle guitarist
that specializes in that down-home style country blues. This base of this
song is rather easy, but the fills laid down by Doc and his late son
Merle are a bit tough. However, if you fiddle around, you should be able
to lift them from the track. The rest is easy, and sounds great alone on
an acoustic guitar with fingerpicks on the thumb and middle finger. This
is my first tab for OLGA, and I figured it out by ear one night while I
was messing around while listening to some Doc, it's a neat song and I
hope you enjoy it.

Capo II

Chords Used (relative to capo):
D7D7 (xx0212)
E7E7 (O20130)
A augmentedA (x02225)
G+G (320033)

The whole song is basically like this, and there's a solo break somewhere
near the middle.

Intro: D7, E7, A, A, G, E7, A, G, E7, A, D7, E7, A augmentedA

    D7D7      E7E7       A augmentedA
Well I ain't got no honey baby now
A augmentedA        G+G       E7E7
Guess she didn't love me anyhow
A augmentedA G+G      E7E7      A augmentedA
Oh me, and it's oh Lord-y my,
   D7D7      E7E7       A augmentedA
And I ain't got no honey baby now

That's basically the whole song, just with different lyrics, and it's
played a few times over solos and fills.
Enjoy,
