Charlie Robison - Rayne, Louisiana guitar chord
These chords fit both Rayne, Louisiana, on Bruce Robison's "Wrapped" cd and
the "Unleased live - Charlie & Bruce Robison and Jack Ingram". There are less
runs in the live version which is what I have tabbed. If you would like the
runs in the studio version, feel free to email me.
