	        Slippin' And Slidin':Buddy Holly. 
Album - Reminiscing, released in '63. 
It was released as a single in 1957 as 
a cover to Little Richard's version. But Holly 
omitted one of the verses and did only the two as I 
put them down.  
The original recording is in bad shape but I believe 
I got it right. 

INTRO:A G D E(x2)(The intro is done similar to 
             the Everly's 'Bird Dog,' fairly fast. Then 
              he slides into a rock shuffle in A to D 
              to E to A.

and I'll be your fool no more.
