bay- bee please don’t go-oh

I like Delarjo’s cover of Baby Please Don’t Go. This song was originally recorded in 1935 by Big Joe Williams, a great and bad assed blues man.

Del has a whole lot going on in his version. I wish I could play like that. The main lick as I hear it is tabbed above.

I’m using a GDg git. This will work on one sting or all three – or do it on the big string and echo it on the small string.

0 is open. 3 is the 3rd fret. 5 is the 5th and 7 is the 7th.

The rest: [0] Bay [0] bee

[7] please [7] don’t [7] go.

[0] Down [0]to [5] new [5]or [5]leans

Oh I've finally found what I'm looking for...........please add me as a friend buddy. I'm just making the leap from strumming a Ukulele to having a pop with my new CBG bought for my birthday. Love it, but don't have a clue what to do. Your lessons look ideal for me.

cheers buddy..............Sammy

I love these videos, and I'm so glad you write down such detailed instructions. My phone doesn't allow me to watch the video, but the written instructions are easy to follow.

One of the best songs ever and a great lesson I got your back Tiny. What trouble makers

Big Joe was said to have been  an *sshole look at him

like many greats he got used so who can blame him.
