Too Long At The Fair - Joel Zoss/Bonnie Raitt (cover)

Cover of Bonnie Raitt's version of Too Long At The Fair written by Joel Zoss from the album Give It Up. Bonnie doesn't fret the 4th or 5th strings on the Fsus2 or the Em in the opening section but I think it gives a slightly fuller sound.

@riffsista Thanks :-)

Thank you. I enjoyed your rendition very much. I've always wanted to learn to play this song and your video was a great help. My fingers should be a little longer but I'll get it! Thank you Litegauge, you're an inspiration.

@kragskov54 You're welcome. Yes, it's a great song - I've always admired Bonnie Raitt's ability to choose great songs and arrange them in her own beautiful way. Keep on playing!

Sweet!

my 4 year old & i completely lost track of time at the marshfield fair a couple days in a row, coming home so late! the hook line of this song got stuck in my head for days. now, couple weeks later & now it can be stuck in my guitar, for good.

@adrianosoc I think I'm playing slightly fuller chords than Bonnie :

300033, 1x3013, 022003 and 300033 repeated. x0321x, x2003x, x032010, add 5th string 3rd fret back to C then D and G.

The next section C, Bb, 3x000x x1x00x, x3x00x, x1x00x to G

Then Bm, Am, Bm, D, Dsus2, D. Bm, Am, C to D, Dsus2, D. Repeat passing through G between then the C and D.
