JUMPING JACK FLASH - Jagger / Richards

Some tabs of the song can be found on OLGA but they sound incomplete to me .
I don't mean that this one is the full score but once we know that the lead guitar
must be tuned in open G, it seems easy to tab the lead guitar part. This is
an attempt to tab the song from both the original studio recording and the
live version of "Get yer ya yas out".
You will find two MP3 illustrations of the tab and how to contact me here:

The original tune is played in Eb. The best is to use capos.

THE FIRST GUITAR IS IN STANDARD TUNING and with A CAPO on the FIRST fret
it then plays 'classical' chords like this (frets are counted from the position
of the capo) :
Bb : 577655
Ab : 355433
Eb : 200232 (open)
Eb : 101212111010
C# : 81010988
C : 799877

THE SECOND GUITAR MUST BE TUNED IN OPEN G : D - G - D - G - B - D and with
CAPO on the 3 rd fret

INTRO : Twice ...
( better let the first guitar ring alone
on the Bb)
