Chords for Freddie King Ghetto Woman Live 1970.mpg

[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Abm] I'd be asking an embarrassing question of how long you've been playing the blues and
playing the guitar.
_ Oh, about _ _ 31 years.
I've been playing since I was six years old.
And where did you come from in the States?
Texas.
From Texas.
Yeah. _
I was born in Texas.
I was raised in Chicago.
_ So I moved back to Texas where I live now.
[Ab] And which were the _ bluesmen or the guitar players that influenced you when you were growing up?
Oh, a lot of them, man.
I mean, like_ Tell them.
I mean, like T-Bone Walker, _ Muddy Waters, Jimmy Rogers, Eddie [A]
Taylor, _ and [Ab] Lightnin'
Hopkins.
That's the rest of them.
Right.
And when you went up to Chicago, did any of those fellas [A] help you get [Ab] onto the scene?
Like Eddie did _ and Jimmy Rogers.
He taught me how to use the picks I use now.
_ In fact, that's an interesting way_
The way you play guitar is not the way most other blues players.
They would use a flat pick, but you're using your fingers, aren't you?
I get more soul like that, man.
Right. _ _ _
Which bluesmen today do you like?
All of them.
All of them.
Yeah, really.
I mean, _ if I start naming the bluesmen, I love them all, man. _
And if I start naming them, I'll be here for a couple of hours.
_ And that's what I mean when I say bluesmen.
I mean white, black, don't care, _ both.
Right.
A lot of people probably at home would be interested to know this.
[Bb] The kings of the blues.
There's Freddie King, [G] Alva King, B.B. King.
Are you all related?
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] We're brothers, we just don't have the same mother and father.
_ _ _ Okay. _ _
_ _ No, _ we're not related, but _ I wish we were.
But we are very good friends, all three of us.
[E] _ _ And that's_
The young man is my brother up there, the one who plays the bass.
_ He is? Yeah.
_ _ _ Great.
All right.
Take care.
