This is pretty crude, but is sounds good
additions/corrections welcome. Previous post of the
lick is included at the bottom. There are no CRD versions
of this song on the archive that I could find. -Rick

Bourbon Blues, on the street, loose and complete

Under skies of smokey blue -green

I cant forsake a dixie dead shake
EmGEmG
So we danced the sidewalk clean
BA
My memory is muddy, what?s this river that I?m in?
B
Hey New Orleans is sinkin, man
A
And I dont want to swim
Back to Em/G shuffle for second verse
Play an ?A? for the yelp (AHHHHHH-HAAA)
From ?Pale as a lightbulb...to I swear to GOD she said? do the Em/G shuffle
then repeat the ?A? for the AHHHHHH-HAAA yelp
then Em/GEm/G, then

Hey New Orleans is sinkin, man
A
And I dont want to swim
Back to Em/G to close

I'm not really sure if this is correct, but this is how I play it:
The main riff looks like:
E|----------------------------|
B|----------------------------|
G|----------------------------|
D|--------2-----------0--0h2--|
A|-----------2-----2----------|
E|--0--0--------3-------------|
I think the bass plays something similiar to this as well.
The other catchy little riff looks something like:
E|----------0-----------------------------------0--------------------------|
B|--3p0--0-----3p0----------------------3p0--0-----3p0---------------------|
G|------------------4p0--3p0--2p0-----------------------4p0--3p0--2p0------|
D|---------------------------------2p0---------------------------------2---|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------0--------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--3p0--0-----3p0---------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------4p0--3p0--2p0--4p0--3p0--2p0--2s4--4--4--4--4----------|
