This was a popular song by the Legendary MIssissippi Sheiks. I have always liked the vocal line of this song...it is a crooner's delight. The guitar line is simple and exists to accompany the vocal line, not to upstage it. Take your time with the alternating bass and then attack the melody line once you have learned the bass well. Be sure to listen to the original version to give you some ideas about how you would do your own version of this tune.
Enjoy!
Corey
