    This is a short acoustic fingerstyle blues ditty written by Tom
  Toulouse Street. From what I could gather, the tuning for the song
  is: EADGAD (I could be wrong, but it sounds right).
    The guitar is also capoed on the first fret. All finger positions
  are relative to the capo.

  Acoustic guitar, tuned EADGAD, capo 1 (Rhythm figure 1)

                        G7                                        D9

         Perches ...
   **Outro (pretty tricky, but it sounds cool)

    * Go back to rhythm figure 1 and play to fadeout
  Note: I don't know how it was done, but it almost sounds like there
        is a second guitar playing a percussive part under the main
        guitar part. I tried to emulate it the best I could with the
        picking pattern.
