Here is my instrumental version of "Poor Boy Blues" by Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler.
I am playing it on my Fender 50's Series, through my Korg AX3000G.
I hope you like it. Dave
p.s. I always recommend earphones, preferably earbuds, for a clear sound.

Lyrics
Do I want you? Yes I do
Do I need you? Baby you know it's true
But I ain't got nothin' that you can use
So I'm sittin' on my own here, with these poor boy blues
One day, baby, you will see
You're gonna give all your love to me
I'm the one, babe, that you're gonna choose
But in the meantime, I got these poor boy blues
Pick it son, pick it nice
Things won't always be the same
Someday soon, everything will change
You'll tell your mama her baby's got good news
But until then, well, I got these poor boy blues
But until then, well, I got these poor boy blues
