Re: Looking for a Jerry Reed tune

Hey, RC,
Intro goes, G,F,C,G - twice.
First verse G,E minor,A,D - twice
Bridge? E minor,D,C,A,D
Next verse, solo and following verse, same as first verse.
Another bridge chords same as first.
From there you play G, E minor, A, D, and G to the end.

Here's the U-Tube link:

Sure wish I could play lead like Jerry Reed - his harmonica guy ain't no slouch either.

We pronounce it "Guf Coast".
Ya'll wanna go down to the Guf?

Re: Looking for a Jerry Reed tune

In the words of Reed himself.......Son.

Yes, he was one hellufied Guitar Man. Your right about the harmonica guy but I always thought the banjo playing in that one was what set it off, wish I had that much finger control.

You are the Man, I really appreciate that. I hope I can help you out some day.
