Baby Please Don't Go Lick

bay- bee please don’t go-oh

I like Delarjo’s cover of Baby Please Don’t Go. This song was originally recorded in 1935 by Big Joe Williams, a great and bad assed blues man.

Del has a whole lot going on in his version. I wish I could play like that. The main lick as I hear it is tabbed above.

I’m using a GDg git. This will work on one sting or all three – or do it on the big string and echo it on the small string.

0 is open. 3 is the 3rd fret. 5 is the 5th and 7 is the 7th.

The rest: [0] Bay [0] bee

[7] please [7] don’t [7] go.

[0] Down [0]to [5] new [5]or [5]leans

[0]You [3]know [0]I [5]love [3] you [0]so

Comment by Sammy Lloyd on September 20, 2013 at 11:56pm: Oh I've finally found what I'm looking for...........please add me as a friend buddy. I'm just making the leap from strumming a Ukulele to having a pop with my new CBG bought for my birthday. Love it, but don't have a clue what to do. Your lessons look ideal for me.

cheers buddy..............Sammy

Comment by RTZGUITARS on August 18, 2012 at 9:56am: One of the best songs ever and a great lesson I got your back Tiny. What trouble makers

Big Joe was said to have been an *sshole look at him

like many greats he got used so who can blame him.
