Hey, Ron.  It's not too hard to play and it's a song that a LOT of people play and put their own style into it.  Also seems like a lot of folks have different lyrics and verse patterns.  It's a good one to do your own way.

3 chords and a cloud of blues.

That song has been one of my all-time favorites. Heard Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder's version and it has been in my head since. Maybe I just need to sit down and try to play a few chords of it. With my skill that would only take about 3 months, lol.

LOL on your volume assessment, Rick!  Thank you and stick around!

Hi Uncle! It’s been a while old friend, but your music and profound blues makes me feel right at home. The volume might be a bit high, but is there any other way to correctly sing blues classics.  I agree with the old Aussie fella, the Iowa Sax and LPG are great chemistry. You looking good, must be all the snow shoveling.

Thanks, Kale.  I like doing this good old song.   I think I had the amp volume a bit too high.
