Shake Your Moneymaker by Elmore James
Shake Your Moneymaker
This is transcribed from "The Fire Sessions." The tuning is open D (DADF#AD). At the
there's a piano playing a call and response part after each riff. If you want to imitate
simply play at the twelfth fret with a slide. Also, the guitar in the actual song does
play in the verses (save for the slide part at the end of each verse). What I've
is the bass part or a part for a second guitar.

version 2
Tuning: Open D (DADF#AD)
This song has a fun and easy solo to play with a slide, from the king of
slide guitar himself. The other tabs here don't do this song justice.
