Biography:
At least five artists share the name Rodriquez.
1) Sixto Diaz Rodriguez (also known as Rodriguez or as Jesus Rodriguez) is an American folk musician, born in Detroit, Michigan on July 10, 1942. He was named 'Sixto' (pronounced seex-toe) because he was the sixth child in his family. Rodriguez's parents were middle-class immigrants from Mexico, who left in the 1920s. In most of his songs he takes a political stance on the cruelties facing the inner city poor.

*** The chord names are written above the words where they are played in the recordings
for those who sing and play.
*** As always, listen to the song for strumming and chord changes. This is only a rough
guide on how to play the song easily.
*** Also, it sounds to me like he plays without a Capo, and when I perform this song I
usually play it without a Capo, with a sharp acoustic guitar sound with reverb, and using
barred chords.
