Verse 1
D
You just came from England.
What would you say the trend
is there?
Any particular kind of blues
they liked the best
when you sang in England recently?
G
Well, the main thing about it is, if you can,
F
G
if you get up and explain what you're going to play,
the people will sit quiet
and listen to whatever you sing,
and then they'll take it
F
D
from there.
G
And there's no country I've been
in in my life
that people don't have blues.
Of they have it a different way.
F
G
They have it through wars
F
and through different destructions
G
F
and things that we don't have here.
G
And therefore, they don't have the same way,
F
have the blues the same way that I do.
G
So I'm singing it the way that I have it.
And therefore, it never happened
to them over there.
And then when I explain it before
D
I start singing it,
G
then they know what I mean.
It's trouble.
I'm singing about the trouble I
It's the same in every language.
Yeah.
So if they had trouble, so they understand that I'm
singing about the trouble I have,
then they feel it.
Is there any particular blues
that you found was very popular there,
of all the songs that you have?
F
Well, yes, I've got one that I do play over there
G
for them that they all like,
and they understand it,
C
F
because I'm singing about woman trouble,
D
G
and I think every man born have
had woman trouble.

Well, on the subject of women,
since they've been,
I guess, the basis of most of the blues,
you know.
So, let's sort of wander around,

blues I ever did
wasn't about the woman, was Daisy. Daisy.

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad

This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
