Johnny Cash - Wayfaring Stranger

About this version

If you are here for the bass part, that is probably all you need to know. Open the track, stay with the line, and get a few clean repetitions in.

Useful for

learning notes and movement

Useful for

checking where the line really sits

Useful for

short practice loops before a full run

A simple way in

A version for learning the line, checking the pocket, and playing along without the rest of the mix getting in your way.

Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.

Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.

Notes

Johnny Cash's recording of Wayfaring Stranger. Lyrics : I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling thru this world below Theres no sickness, no toil, no danger In that bright land to which I go Im going there to see my Father And all my loved ones who've gone old Im just going over Jordan Im just going over home I know dark clouds will gather round me, I know my way is hard and steep But beauteous fields arise before me Where Gods redeemed their vigils keep Im going there to see my Mother She said shed meet me when I come So I'm just going over Jordan I'm just going over home I'm just going over Jordan I'm just going over home
