Notes From John
This is the same Rhythm/Lead chart as the Lead page, in tab, 4/4 with swing eighths marked, at BPM = 218; the rhythm work is the choruses and the outro. The choruses (0:04, 0:57, 1:50, 2:43) are four-note chord shapes on E, A, B and D, mostly down strokes with the up strokes marked. The outro at 3:00 moves the same kind of shapes to B, F♯ and C♯7 and ends on a held F♯.
For the player
The first chorus comes in at 0:04, right after the intro bend, so hit it cold on the first E. Follow the stroke marks: the downs carry it and the marked ups are the push. Keep the shapes short and the swing even when the chorus moves between E, A and B. At BPM = 218 the job is the feel.
