Riff 1:

Played on bass guitar, but throw it in there with the rhythm guitar when
you're playing acoustically by yourself or in a band that has no bass.

A-----0-4-0-|
E-0-2-------|

Intro 1:

Rhythm guitar is played with Wah Wah Pedal. For the Am7 and Gm7 parts, just
strum the chords once and rock the Wah Wah a few times. For the 9 chords,
hit the sharp chord first and then slide down to the standard 9 chord and,
like with before, rock the pedal and let the chord ring.

Chords:

D#9/D9 - - - D#9/D9 - - - A#9/A9 - - - E/Esus4 - - - - - - -

Intro 2/Verse/Guitar Solo:

This is your standard blues progression with a little bit of a jazzy feel to
it. The strum is also very jazzy, and easy to figure out by listening. It's
played with a six-string electric doing the strumming and a twelve-string
acoustic doing fingerpicking on the open versions of the chords. Over the
intro and the guitar solo, just jam out on the Am Pentatonic scale for your
leads.

Am7 Dm7 Am7 Am7
Dm7 Dm7 Am7 Am7 X4
Em7 Dm7 Am7 Riff 1

After you play the progression for the 4th time, end by strumming the Am7
once and then break. Then...

Middle Bit:

F - G - A - - - G F X4

The last verse is played with just the 12-string acoustic doing the
fingerpicking. Go through the progression, hit the bass riff and then end it
on an Am7 chord, let it ring, and voila! A modern jazz/rock instant classic.
