16 Mar 07 - 11:15 PM (#1999254) Subject: Chord Req: Mississippi John Hurt - Waiting for You From: GUEST,Stephen Can I please get a tab or chords for this song, I started trying to figure it out but I think there is some backing guitar soloing thing that screws me up. Anyway, any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks! |
16 Mar 07 - 11:28 PM (#1999262) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Mississippi John Hurt - Waiting for You From: Peace Full title is " "Waiting for You (I Forgive You Before I Go)". I'll look, but better you keep the thread up where the blues guys and gals can see it. |

18 Mar 07 - 12:20 AM (#1999939) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Mississippi John Hurt - Waiting for From: GUEST,Stephen I noticed that there were lots of blues people here, multiple times this site came up when I was searching for info and lyrics for Lead Belly songs. I don't have a registered name, but I just thought it would happen quicker, maybe I should just sharpen my senses and give it another good try learning it by ear. |
