Bob Dylan — Baby Let Me Follow You Down Chords
Baby let me follow you down
by Bob Dylan
Chorded by Russ Stone
Capo 2nd fret (sounding key A major)
Chords (The F is played with a hammer—on from the open 6th string):
Eb/g 3xx343
G/b 7xx787
D/a 5xx775 or x0x775
C/e 000553
D/f# 200232
C/g 332010
He doesn't always get the descent ("I'll do anything...") right — sometimes it seems he just sends the
away to some bass string (sometimes both the E and the A). Especially the G/b — it is generally so blurred
it's apparent that he's fingering something — most logically the 7th fret with the thumb — but the b rarely sounds, and at times he just plays an E on the open 6th string.

Additional verses (from Witmark demo):
