Nice song by Rayland.....
 
*phonetic blues included*
 
 
Standard tuning, capo on 3rd fret
 
song uses only Em   B7   C7   Am
 
...and he inserts a hook throughout...
 
Relative to capo
 
B7 = x212ox
C7 = x3231x
 
 
 
Here's one version of the hook he plays with the Em....Baxter plays around with
different slides and bends and hammer/po's of the basic hook....
