Default Spanish Johnny

Paul Siebel took an old poem by Willa Cather, changed the lyrics and wrote a song to it. I learned this off a Dave Bromberg album.

Great job on that!
When I first heard Dave Bromberg do this a couple of years ago I found it mesmerizing.
I did version here a ways back.Took me a while to track down tuning and chord shapes.
Yours sounds true to the original. Well done.

Really nice job on an old favorite. Listened to the Bromberg version in the car just yesterday. Thanks

Jeff

Very nice version! That 12 string sounds awesome! I fixed your link. You made the same mistake I did. You only are supposed to copy the info to the right of the = sign.
