Jesus Just Left Chicago

by Zz Top
Zz Top

Biography:

ZZ Top is an American rock trio formed in 1969 in Houston, Texas. The band has, since 1970, consisted of bassist/vocalist Dusty Hill, vocalist/guitarist Billy Gibbons (the band's leader, main lyricist and musical arranger), and drummer Frank Beard. "As genuine roots musicians, they have few peers", according to critic Michael "Cub" Koda. "Gibbons is one of America's finest blues guitarists working in the arena rock idiom [...] while Hill and Beard provide the ultimate rhythm section support."

Jesus Just Left Chicago

You can get the turnaround and solo from other tabs out there. I think this gives
you a real easy to follow chord arrangement with lyrics.

The Guitar Pro tab I looked at showed this song with 3 guitars. I've played it with
two - one doing these chords, turnaround, and solo. And the other guitar doing the
basic blues shuffle.
