About
Early Elvis. Here is the song that is considered by many music experts (you know, the guys that cannot play anything but know everything) as the origin of Rock’n Roll. Well. Originally performed and written by Arthur „Big Boy“ Crudup. Had to go to court to receive his royalties.
Original Key
A
Tuning
Regular
Tab Notes
Grooving country swing, with a very light blues touch. The A chord in the first eight bars is a semi-barreé chord on the first four strings. During the D7/9, the chord position changes from open chord to barreé on the fifth fret (optional, as always). And I skipped the last two bars (not much happening there).
