Good Morning Blues Chords

Great 12-string blues song from way back. I've added a bridge, which I feel pays tribute to the Leadbelly style. To me the bridge besides breaking up the song adds interest.Was this info helpful?

This is a traditional 12-string guitar blues by Ledbelly with bridge added.
Played with "walking" between chords wth selected hammering.
For example: 1-When going from E7 to A walk up on the 6th string playing F# G G# A and reverse when
walking from A back down to E, or 2-When going from E7 to B7 on the 6th string play F#,
on 5th string hammer Bb then play B, then on 4th string hammer Eb, then end on 3rd string playing E.
I add other transitional notes throughout but do not know how to write tabs.
