Verse 1
C 
 (C major) Yeah, John,
G 
C 
I would  (G major) just like to take a little  (C major) time out
to speak a few words
F 
in the memory of my good  (F major) friend,
the great late McKinley Morganfield.
People all over world know him as
Muddy in Mississippi Waters.
C 
F 
 (C major) I'd just like to  (F major) say a few things
G 
as to what he meant  (G major) to me.
F 
As far as  (F major) be coming a
C 
 (C major) blues man
in the first place.
F 
C 
 (F major) Before  I ever heard the  (C major) man,
F 
I was playing gospel  (F major) in my dad's church.
G 
He  (G major) used to come out in
F#dim 
the  (F sharpdim) rural  districts
F 
where I  (F major) lived and play Friday
night
and Saturday night,
fish fry and so have you.
C 
And  (C major) really the first time I heard him play
G 
was  (G major) the first time
C 
I'd ever heard anybody play the  (C major) blues live
F 
C 
an (F major) d from that very first time  (C major) that I heard him
G 
it  (G major) was such an inspiration to me
until it inspired me to start trying to
F 
play the blues.  (F major) 
F#dim 
F 
 (F sharpdim) That's been many many  (F major) years ago
and as far as I'm concerned
C 
Mutt  (C major) was the greatest Delta,
G 
F 
Mississippi  (G major) Delta blues man that  (F major) ever lived.
C 
G 
 (C major) He brought the tradi (G major) tion to Chicago
C 
and I think most  (C major) blues men
F 
would agree with me on that.  (F major) 
C 
Dm 
G 
 (C major) So this album, is dedicated  (D minor) to   (G major) you
F 
C 
and  (F major) I hope you'll be  (C major) pleased with
Dm 
G 
 (D minor) it up  (G major) there in blues heaven.
Gsus4 
G 
C 
 (Gsus4)  (G major) Good  (C major) night.
F 
Gsus4 
F 
 (F major)  (Gsus4)  (F major) you
