      Ok, weird tuning on this one, it's (low to high) EACFAC.  Slow blues, 
    cool drums, very repetetive, what more is there to say? Have fun, and try

    it with a slide.

Geeze, there's really not much to this song is there? Well, I must admit, I
got quite 
a bit of help on this, and can't take all the credit for it. But anyway, if
you have any questions, comments, or corrections let me know, Matt O'Donnell,
