Title: this war will last you for years
Post by: kindlemonj on July 28, 2014, 07:52:38 AM

There's just one kind favor I ask of you, Son House, this war will last you for years, lyric, key, tuning etc. I was laying in my bed last night and I declare I was all by myself, when this Son House gem popped into my  brain, I just have to do this one ! I've got the old Folkways [?] JD Short/Son House album somewhere in the loft I bought it new in the sixties and I should have a CD/mp3 file of it somewhere. Thanks in advance guys, I'm going to find a cross roads  now !  8)

As far as I can remember, it is in E position, tuned/capoed up 4 frets to sound in A flat. Hope it helps.

It's in A position, not E, mostly played out of D7 shaped chords moved up and down the neck.

Well, that explains why I was fooled! Thanks, Chris.
