Dinks Blues

 

Arranged and adapted by John Stewart

 

For once, hardly time for a small blob.  It´s on the “Bandera” live album, it´s damn good and it´s a trad song that John has made his own.

 

 

(Fj7) (Em) (D2)(G)

 

If I had (Cj7/E)wings (D2)

Like Noah's (Em)dove, (D2)

Fly up the (E7 short)river(E7 short/D)
