@wildbilco55 Who cares about Nick Lowe? How 'bout the fact that Thorobad can't carry Lowe's jockstrap when it comes to songwriting or songcovering as is the case here. Lowe's original is far cooler and manages a sense of humor that Thorobad is too heavy-handed to convey. I mean Jesus Christ...at least get the fucking lyrics right.
@maxipaxie Depends on what key you're playing it in. It's the IV chord to the I chord, then the II chord to the V chord. iorioriorio is correct that, if you're in G, it would be C (the IV chord in the key of G) to G (the I), then A (the II) to D (the V).
Whatever happened to the One-Bourbon-One-Scotch-One-Beer George Thorogood? This is sad.

Sorry, nowhere near as good as the original. Too fast, crap vocal, doesn't swing.
mandopunk07 - Rockpile never played this. At least at any of the 20+ gigs I saw.

This is not a bad remake of Nick Lowe's original.
