When I Lay My Burden Down (ver 2) by Mississippi Fred Mcdowell

                                          When I Lay My Burden Down

Tabbed by: Connor O.
Tuning: Open E (EBEG#Be)
YT Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fS_27YTMxLg



Open E chord tuning. Fred tuned the guitar right into it but I find it safer 
to go into Open D (DADF#Ad) and then put the capo on the 2nd fret. A whole step
isn't that big of a jump to tune a string but I don't like to take chances.

MFM didn't play a steady bassline. He'd skip some here or there to accentuate 
certain slides and would sometimes focus on a one string bassline instead of a
two string. I'm not that obsessed. If you wanted to though, you could follow
the beat through the whole song while watching the video and listening to a 
slowed down .mp4 of the song.

You'll notice, however, that I did go through and find most of the ornamental
stuff he does mixing up the beat with mute strokes. 

Also, after the solo, everything on the B and e strings is played with a slide
or is played as an open string.

Comment or message any ideas or corrections. Please rate my tab. If you've got
problems with the tab, I'd encourage you to contact me with those problems so I
can fix the tab or provide advice for playing. Don't just give me a poor rating
and not give me any feedback. The idea is for us all to work together to create
a perfect finished product. This tab just represents the best I can do. It's 
definitely up for peer review.



Key:
where # represents a fret number

#h# - hammer
#p# - pull
/  - slides, up and down respectively.
=== - under boxes, represents the use of a guitar slide.
 x  - mute
 *  - time keeper. if you played a steady
      baseline, you'd see the notes are 
      displayed in the tab in the correct 
      chronological order.
