Spiritual

Ever since I was 6 or 7 years old, I have loved the old Spiritual songs, typically played in church on piano with the choir and typically having an ascending bass line. So, I decided to try to write one. I'm not so sure it really came out with a spiritual sound, but at least it is fun to pick. I flat out stole the opening lick from Tommy Jones (Will The Circle Be Unbroken), tweaking it a little to lead in to the rest of the tune. Tuning: 6th in D, 3rd in F#, all others unaltered.
