I've been playing around with the first half for years and can never seem to get the rest. Thanks I love this tune too Bill and have been working on it for a while. I start it with these chords E7 and E flat7 and back to E7, up the neck: -------7--- and the E flat 6 -------6-- -------5--- (if that's it's name) -------5-- -------7-- ------6-- -------6 - -------5-- xxxxxxx xxxxxx-- -------0--- --------0--
The progression then goes: (E7) Give me back (E flat 6) my old boat (E7) I'm gonna sail boys (A) if she'll float <when you hit "if she'll float" the high E string goes ---3--2---0--> (E, played at 1st fret) I've got them deep river (B7)blues <this is followed w/ a nice fill:> --------------------------3bend---3b---0-------------- ------------------------------------------------3----0-- ---------------------------------------------------------- ------1------1------------------------------------------- -2---------------------------------------------------- ----------2----------------------------------------------- (E7) If my boat (Efl6) sinks with me (E7) I'm going down boys (A)don't you see (E)I've got them (B7)deep river (E) blues This is the first TAB I've tried so I hope it was clear enough, enjoy.
