Blues legend and wicked song. This pattern is repeated all the way through. I play this 
standard although I'm sure you could have a play in some open tunings.

You made me weep
And you made me moan
Way you cause me to leave my
My happy home

But someday
Ya ain't gonna worry my life any mo'


Ya told ev'rybody
In your neighborhood
What a dirty mistreater
Didn't mean ya no good

But someday
Ya ain't gonna worry my life any mo'


When I had money
I had plenty-a friends
I ain't got no money, baby
Honey, even no friend

But someday
Ya ain't gonna worry my life any more


If I had money
Like Henry Ford
I'll have me a woman on
On ev'ry road

But bye-bye
Ya ain't gonna worry my life any mo'
