Tampa Red song which I play more in the style of Mike Dowling.
This melody has been used countless times in blueshistory. For example : "It Hurts Me Too" by Bib Bill Broonzy and Elmore James, "Come Into My Kitchen" by Robert Johnson.
I'm playing a 1953 Gibson L50 in open D tuning but a half step higher (D# A# G D# A# D# high to low)
I made a lesson, for the intro and first verse, with free TAB on this song.
Here's the link

I also made a lesson video with tab for the rest of the song (4 more verses and tree guitar solo's)
I also discuss some ways around some difficulties; I know the tremolo brush at the end is not for everybody so I give an easy solution to avoid it.
Available through my website
Cost : €7.50 (about $8,30) for this song and another one of your choice

LYRICS
So many days, I've been mislead
Rocks was my pillow, stones was my bed
chorus : Now after all, my hard traveling
Things 's 'bout comin' my way
I walked the road, from town to town
All of my good friends, done turned me down
Don't let nobody, be your friend
They all forsake you, in the end
I stood around the prison wall
They all were so happy, to see me fall
repeat third verse
