I love this tune too Bill and have been working on it for a while. I
start it with these chords E7 and E flat7 and back to E7, up the neck:
-------7--- and the E flat 6 -------6---------5--- (if that's it's name) -------5---------7-- ------6---------6 - -------5--
xxxxxxx xxxxxx---------0--- --------0--
The progression then goes:
(E7) Give me back (E flat 6) my old boat (E7) I'm gonna sail boys (A) if
she'll float
(E, played at 1st fret) I've got them deep river (B7)blues
--------------------------3bend---3b---0--------------------------------------------------------------3----0------------------------------------------------------------------1------1--------------------------------------------2--------------------------------------------------------------2-----------------------------------------------
(E7) If my boat (Efl6) sinks with me (E7) I'm going down boys (A)don't you
see
(E)I've got them (B7)deep river (E) blues
This is the first TAB I've tried so I hope it was clear enough, enjoy.
