Original version in C# - see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8tZO97uhyE.
This version tabbed in C and played with a capo on the 1st fret.
The song is basically a twelve bar blues in form I I I I IV IV I I V IV I I, played with a swing feel.
Intro starts "from the V" and is 4 bars long.
Outro of original fades out after repeating last line 1.5 times.
