Blue On Black - Kenny Wayne Shepherd; How to play it with Open Chords and "5 Chords" Guitar tutorial

Kenny Wayne Shepherd's song, Blue On Black, is one of my favorites. The laid back groove of this song never gets old and, with the repeating chord progression, it's an easy one to learn. (Much tougher to master if you want to play it the way Mr. Shepherd does.) Have fun rocking this one!
