More chords by Elmore James

Genre: blues, rock and roll, rhythm and blues


This Song Has a Very Specific Blues Shuffle. The Shuffle Starts On The
Traditional A Blues Shuffle.
However Instead Of Switching From The 2nd To The 4th On The D String,

You Hit The Second On The D String And Switch Between Hitting The 3rd A

String/3rd Of The A

Then Hammering/pull Off 3rd Of The E String. There's Also a Few Fun Opening

Picks. Watch a Tutorial.

This Is a Traditional 1,4,5 Progression. But When You Switch To The 4 You
Play And Open C7 Shape,
Root Note On The 5th Of The A String. Then For The 5th Cord Play Open E7.
THE OPENING, YOU SHUFFLE ON THE 1 UNTIL YOU'RE READY
A
A
Well I've cried so much for you
A
Baby, there's nothing new
D7
Well, I've cried so much for you
A
Baby that's nothing new
E7
Now I wish I had one dollar
D7 A
For all the times I've cried for you
A
Almost every night, I Cry myself to sleep
A
Everybody else is happy, But I'll just weep, weep, weep
D7
And these tears, tears, tears
A
Why won't they let me be?
E7
Now I wish just once
D7 A
You'd cry for me
A
Why should I remember? How can I forget?
A
I wake up every morning And my pillow is

soaking wet
D7
From these tears, tears, tears
A
Why won't they let me be?
E7
Now I wish just once
D7 A
You'd cry for me
A
Now Where Were You Last Night?
A
I Cried All Night Long, The Only You Do Me Baby

Is Wrong, Wrong, Wrong
D7
These Tears Tears Tears
