Mannish Boy Chords & Guitar Lesson
One of my all-time favorite blues musicians is Muddy Waters.
This guy could sing, play, and lead a band like a boss. A great example of this is his tune “Mannish Boy”.
Ever heard it?
It starts off with this incredible call & response between Muddy’s voice and his guitar.
He sings:
===
Oh, yeah
(epic blues lick)
Oh, yeah
(epic blues lick)
Everything gonna be alright this mornin'
===
And so on and so forth.
The licks he plays are tasty, soulful, and the epitome of blues guitar. In the video above, I take a quick look at them. This song is a blues standard originally done by Muddy Waters but many other great artists have covered it as well.
