My Mind Is Ramblin'
by: The Black Keys
Chulahoma: The Songs of Junior Kimbrough
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tabbed by: Connor O.
Tuning: Standard
Effects: Echo/delay and fuzz
Like with all other Chulahoma songs, it's hard to know if this is exactly
how it's played as there is no live footage (that I could find) of it
being played. Also like other Chulahoma (Kimbrough in general, really)
songs, it's just following a certain pattern on a pentatonic scale.
That being said, I'm confident in this tab's accuracy because it's
easy for me to play it this way and it sounds spot on with the
recorded version.
