Johnson Robert - Come On In My Kitchen tab

From: tron@elrayo.rhein-main.de (markus tron)

I think Johnsons guitar is tuned in open A, with a capo at
the second fret. I play it in open A.
I play this with my fingers and a heavy metal bottleneck.
Sometimes I use a thumb-pick for a louder bass line.
I use at least (as a minimum size) 0.13" sized strings!

~Title:  Come on in my kitchen
Artist: Robert Johnson


Descriptions:

/  : pick first note and slide up to second without picking second note.
\  : pick first note and slide down to second without picking second note.
~  : slight vibrato with bottleneck
h  : hammer on (with bottleneck)
p  : pull off (if possible with bottleneck)
d  : dampen (with left or right hand) as soon as you play next note

additional lyrics:

The woman I love took from my best friend
Some joker got lucky stole her back again
You better come on in my kitchen babe, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors

Oh-ah she's gone I know she won't come back
I've taken the last nickel out of her 'nation sack
You better come on in my kitchen babe, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors

BRIGDGE:
(spoken 
"Baby can't you hear that wind howl 'n' all?
 Oh-ah can't you hear that wind would howl?
 You better come on in my kitchen babe, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors)

When a woman gets in trouble everybody throws her down
Looking for her good friend none can be found
You better come on in my kitchen babe, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors

Winter time's comin' it's gon' be slow
You can't make the winter, babe that's dry long so
You better come on in my kitchen babe, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors

The above is a very easy way to play that Robert Johnson song.
For a more detailed transcription I would recommend:
Scott Ainslie's "Robert Johnson complete guitar transcription".
It's NO book for beginners!

BTW listen to Rory Block's version of that song.
She's a fantastic slide player and the way she's playin' that 
song is worth to buy her record... AND...
... the above transcription is closer to the way she plays the
song then Robert recorded it. He plays it more up tempo
on the take I've got. But on the other side, I've heared about
him playing this song very slow, each time playin' in front 
of an audience.

I hope this tab's not too bad, and you folks can work with it.

have fun

PS: Any corrections or comments welcome!

Any Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher or Muddy Waters tab would be very welcome!
