500 Miles Away From Home Chords

This is the version of the original Bobby Bare classic song that Travis Tritt does in his solo acoustic shows. The drop-d gives it a real bluesy feel, and allows a lot of easy blues riffing between the verses. Watch the video for an idea of how to do it, but even strummed it sounds pretty good.Was this info helpful?
