key to highway?
I may have dreamed this, but I thought at some point I saw a tab on the site of Key to the Highway. Is it hiding there somewhere, or should I just go back to sleep?
Thanks David! I do find the eight bar thing much more difficult to keep in my mind and it seems that everyone has a little bit different approach to Key. I often struggle with trying to learn a passage as close as possible to a recording only to hear another version that is markedly different - very frustrating.

"This song is a detailed study in playing over the popular 8 bar blues associated with the song "Key to the Highway." Goals are learning to improvise over the 8 bar form and to improvise around the melody. The biggest challenges will be to "own" the melody, develop the technique necessary to play the bends with precision, and become solid with the 8 bar form. Going to the "V" on bar 2 will be very challenging. You must learn to avoid resolving on the tonic note (2 inhale) in the second bar and fine tune your bend on hole 3. Ten Instruction pages and 24 tracks."
Hi you may have figured it out by now... But it goes something like this:
i've got the ONE, to the Five Chord, To the Four... And stay on the Four
From the One, to the Five chord, back to the One, The one and then the turnaround...
Got this from one of Adam Gussow's paying lessons, cost me 5 dollars but I just HAD to get the basic tune ;-)
I absolutely love Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee's version of this classic
Good morning Bob. No tab for harp, but the chord progression is in Music Theory Study 6 - Beyond 12 Bar Blues, where John and I talk about how to approach it. Also, Tongue Block Study #1 "Walk with Me" is the "Key to the Highway" chord progression, so you can use any chorus for that song.
