Cry For Me Baby by Elmore James - Guitar Chords

Version 1

            This Song Has a Very Specific Blues Shuffle. The Shuffle Starts On The Traditional A Blues Shuffle. 
However Instead Of Switching From The 2nd To The 4th On The D String, 
You Hit The Second On The D String And Switch Between Hitting The 3rd A String/3rd Of The A 
Then Hammering/pull Off 3rd Of The E String. There's Also a Few Fun Opening Picks. Watch a Tutorial.  
This Is a Traditional 1,4,5 Progression. But When You Switch To The 4 You Play And Open C7 Shape,
Root Note On The 5th Of The A String. Then For The 5th Cord Play Open E7.

THE OPENING, YOU SHUFFLE ON THE 1 UNTIL YOU'RE READY

A
Well I've cried so much for you
A
Baby, there's nothing new
D7
Well, I've cried so much for you
A
Baby that's nothing new
E7
Now I wish I had one dollar
D7                                 A
For all the times I've cried for you

A
Almost every night, I Cry myself to sleep
A
Everybody else is happy, But I'll just weep, weep, weep
          D7
And these tears, tears, tears
                      A
Why won't they let me be?
      E7
Now I wish just once
D7                 A
You'd cry for me

A
Why should I remember? How can I forget?
A
I wake up every morning And my pillow is
soaking wet
          D7
From these tears, tears, tears
                         A
Why won't they let me be?
    E7
Now I wish just once
D7                   A
You'd cry for me

A
Now Where Were You Last Night?
A
I Cried All Night Long, The Only You Do Me Baby

Is Wrong, Wrong, Wrong

D7
These Tears Tears Tears
                        A
Why Won't The Let Me Be
    E7
I Wish Just Once,
D7                     A
THAT YOU'D Cry For Me

TAKE IT OUT ON A
SLOW FADE, TURN AROUND, WHATEVER YA LIKE
