Ok guys heres my version of Old man down the road!
The E7 can also be played as a Em and it still sounds right!
Intro:
Use a clear tone with bridge pickup I find works the best, no effects or
fancy tools needed!

E7
He make the young girl's mama cry
CHORUS:
E7
You got to hidey-hide
G
You got to jump and run
A
You got to hidey-hidey-hide
C D E7
The old man is down the road
Verse 2:
He got the voices speakin' riddles
He got eyes as black as coal
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide
And he stands right in the road
CHORUS
John'sinstrumental..... same pattern as chorus
Verse 3:
He make the river call your lover
He make the barking of the hound
Put a shadow 'cross the window
When the old man comes around
Chorus(last line twice)
Now for some of the riffs used.. i think you can figure out where.
These are not fully correct, I mainly improvise them.
