View Guitar Chords for Farewell daddy blues - chords ver. 1
This version is really for the Margo Bingham "Daughter Maitland" version from Boardwalk Empire. That version actually has finger picking on the guitar, I can sort of play along but haven't quite nailed it down yet, but it follows the chord pattern below. If anyone knows the picking pattern and wants to share that would be awesome, and I'll gladly give credit where credit is due. For the best sound this should be played on a nylon stringed guitar.AI'm wild about my Edaddy. AI want him all the time. D A ^^ Wild about my daddy, I want him all the time.
