Biografía:
Benjamin Booker (born Benjamin Roderick Evans; June 14, 1989) is an American musician, singer, songwriter and guitarist. He cites The Gun Club, Blind Willie Johnson and T. Rex as influences. His music was described by the Chicago Tribune as "a raw brand of blues/boogie/soul,", by The Independent as "frenzied guitar-strumming and raw, soulful vocals that are hair-raising in intensity" and by SPIN as "bright, furious, explosive garage rock."

The whole song, is based on A (bare on 2th fret) and D (barre) chords. Then to do the magic, you just need to
play around with your pinky finger, hammmering at the G string on the 4th fret.
Observations:
To change from A to D chord, he will make an slide till the 5th fret.
At the 5th fret, often he puts his pinky finger at the E string on the 7th fret.
A different variation on the A chord you can do is: hammer on the G string at the 4th fret, and then hammer
on the D string at the 4th fret, this will require you to feel the song. :)
[Intro]
A
[Verse]
A
It’s a lonely walk
With a road like that my girl
D A
You ain’t seen no love since that man walked out your door
A
Harder, still
You think you can’t tell no one
D
You God died back in ‘94
A
With a needle, with a needle and a gun
A
Caught your leg on a branch from a willow tree
D
You got blood in your eyes, girl
Thought I heard you screaming—
A
That man took every part of me
D
I lost my will along the highway—marker 54
She said “oh, they don’t make men like that no more”
A
Honey, they sure don’t
A
Set yourself on fire so high so high
D
I could feel your heart was speeding
A
Did you love me or was it the drugs?
D
I could feel your heart was speeding
A
Did you love me or was it the drugs?
[Outro]
And the life we’re living now will surely bury me
