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.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Hey, this is my first tab and actually a correction to a previous tab by DW Drummer,
which BTW is a nice one because is pretty easy to play and have fun...
but what I am posting here is much closer to what Rodriguez actually plays,
specially regarding the intro (with fretted chors, instead of open).
As he uses the same chords for the whole song, I thought it would be nice to make it clear.
