I play this with my fingers and a heavy metal bottleneck.
Sometimes I use a thumb-pick for a louder bass line.
I use at least (as a minimum size) 0.13" sized strings!
I've got a live recording from Muddy Waters playin'
in the key of A with his band using a Telecaster. In this
case Muddy Water doesn't play any bass notes but a nice
melody line which differs from what I play acoustical.
~Title: I can't be satisfied
Artist: Muddy Waters
Descriptions:
/ : pick first note and slide up to second without picking second note.
\ : pick first note and slide down to second without picking second note.
~ : slight vibrato with bottleneck
h : hammer on (with bottleneck)
p : pull off (if possible with bottleneck)
d : dampen (with left or right hand) as soon as you play next note
INTRO:
listen to the record and play what you like to play :-)

additional lyrics:
Yeah I know my little babe she goin' jump and shout
When the train don't be late boy all my troubles gonna work out
Lord my troubles will be all over tonight
Well you know I can't never be satisfied I just can't keep from cryin'
Well I'm alone in my sleep then I go feel lonely
Lookin' for my woman boy I don't see a dog gone thing
Lord my troubles will be all over tonight
Well you know I just can't be satisfied I just can't keep from cryin'
Yeah I know my little babe she goin' jump and shout
When the train don't be late boy all my troubles gonna work out
Lord my troubles will be all over tonight
Well you know I can't never be satisfied I just can't keep from cryin'

Well, this is the first TAB I tried to do.
I hope it's not too bad, and you folks can work with it.
And don't forget the one important thing
while playing slide guitar: DAMP your strings!
have fun
PS: I'm NOT sure about the lyrics.
Any corrections or comments welcome!
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MUDDY WATERS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
