Old Time Religion Misc Traditional
Chord-tabbed by Dadfad (John M) Dadfad@dadfad.com or duolian@msn.com, 12/10/02, Using Microsoft Windows Notepad, Courier New Regular, 10 Font (Gimme That) OLD TIME RELIGION Traditional (adapted by Maybelle Carter, Woody Guthrie, and just about every gospel or gospel-folk singer) (In The Key of G) Gimme that (G) old time religion Gimme that (D) old time re(G)ligion Gimme that old time (C)religion ItÂ’s (G) good e(C)nough (D) for (G) me. It was good for the Hebrew children (x3) And itÂ’s good enough for me. It was good enough for Peter (x3) It's good enough for me. It was good enough for Momma (x3) It's good enough for me. It will do when the world's on fire (x3) And itÂ’s good enough for me. (I've heard this song sang in old country church revivals where the verses were almost unending, passing from person to person, each singer having a new verse of someone who it "was good enough for", like Daddy, Matthew, little children, Jonah, Woodie, Maybelle, David, Moses, etc, etc, or other verses that are appropriate and fit within the one repeated line, which is probably why it became such a well-known traditional spiritual). When passing through the chords, you can just make just partial chord changes. For example, from G to C: 320033 to X32033, just moving your two fingers one string over. Similarly from C to D: X32033 to X00233. Also, many melody notes can be found on the treble strings within the chords, or with simple changes made to them, if played in more of a finger-style. Hammering onto strings five and/or four during and when changing chords adds a bit as well. It's a good tune to experiment with because it's very simple cord progression gives you room to try things out. I've heard and seen it done in many keys, including Open-D in both finger-style and slide. Anyway, have fun with the tune (it's good enough for me!).
