Good morning little schoolgirl

written by Sonny Boy Williamson
performed by Jonny Lang
from the album Lie to me


This song is quite easy, because it uses the very standard good old
bluse theme. Here it is based on a D chord. That means that you play
the whole song in that following rhythm:
                                         D-D-D-D G-G D-D A7-G-D.

You can either use the chords or the orginal riffs tabbed out down
there. I haven't tabbed the solo because it's much better to play
an own one, based on a D pentatonik scale (10. fret).


CHORDS:

  D    D(10.)   G   G(3.)  A7   A7(5.)
E---2-----10-----3-----3-----3-----5---|  These are all the chords used
B---3-----10-----0-----5-----2-----8---|  in the whole song. You can
G---2-----11-----0-----4-----2-----6---|  use either the open ones or
D---0-----12-----0-----5-----2-----7---|  the variants with barré.
A---x-----12-----2-----5-----0-----7---|
E---x-----10-----3-----3-----x-----5---|



RIFFS:I have tabbed two ways where to play the riffs. They sound
      exactly synchronised, but if you want to use a bass you should
      play the second way :-). If you want to, you can also play that
      standard blues riff, it sounds also allright...
