Hi folks!

I'd like to have the chords of that song, wich can be found in the DT. I know it from Bessie Smith, and I'd like to have something close to that. Thanks.

I've got versions by Bessie,Clapton,Acker Bilk,George Melly and Beryl Bryden among others. If you haven't already tried one of the bluse lyrics sites like Harry's and the Heptune they're worth a look.

I think it works better if you play the E7 after the C in the Bridge--also, the B7 is a substitute for the an F#dim--which gives you a half-step movement in the bass--
