I don't know how close this is to JT's version. I haven't compared.
This is all my own work. I just plucked it out one night and it worked
very well.
I went to The Tabcrawler to check my work but couldn't find Sweet Baby James
anywhere.
So, here it is.
If you find some chords that work better or if you are familiar with the
JT version, please feel free to correct my work.
I'm a beginner and have a limited "chord vocabulary". Regardless, I
really like the way this plays.
I believe it is played in 3/4 time. Each Chord is held for a full
measure unless otherwise noted.
