My Mind Is Ramblin'
by: The Black Keys
Chulahoma: The Songs of Junior Kimbrough
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tabbed by: Connor O.
Tuning: Standard
Effects: Echo/delay and fuzz
Like with all other Chulahoma songs, it's hard to know if this is exactly
how it's played as there is no live footage (that I could find) of it
being played. Also like other Chulahoma (Kimbrough in general, really)
songs, it's just following a certain pattern on a pentatonic scale.
That being said, I'm confident in this tab's accuracy because it's
easy for me to play it this way and it sounds spot on with the
recorded version.
Comment/message with corrections/ideas. Please rate my tab.
