Lampshade Drama covers the traditional folk song "Baby Let Me Follow You Down," popularized by a man named Ric Von Schmidt. This song is done in the style of Bob Dylan's version off his self-titled 1962 album.
shanachie 97024 "rev. gary davis blues and ragtime" has "baby let me follow you down" and a great tab by stefan grossman. chords:g g7 c c7 g d7 g e7 a a7 d7 g. dylan could do it now no sweat but he was only 21 or so then.
Mcob1 is right, Reverend Gary Davis is credited with writing the base of this song. In the video we are playing the version from Bob Dylan's debut album, which may be why the chords don't sound like the ones your expecting.
Check Professor Longhair, Baby Let Me Hold Your Hand. Same song, written years before Dylan recorded it.

Pretty good job, great harmonica and harp. The singing I must admit is kind of weak.
