8 bar blues  with beautiful chord combinations + lines Georgia on my mind

For this video I have chosen a beautiful bluesy ballad in F. The A section is an eight bar blues, while the B section is a little more jazzy. There are a lot of chords, but bear in mind, that when you have played through 3 or 4 of these eight bar blues, you will already be quite confident in that genre. Try for instance to comepare with the previous video lessons I made such as "aint nobodys business" and "worried life blues" and you will see that a lot of chords repete themselves, the last 4 bars for instance will almost always start with an I VI II V7 I cadence and in the third bar you will typical have diminished chords.
As drum rhythm I have some time back in time chosen a shuffle rhythm, maybe in order to create more swing as with the 12/8th rhythm, normally I would choose 12/8th rhythm for such a slow ballad.
