  • Wow this is amazing! But I've got a question: Can you explain what you do while you're playing the verse? So when you're singing: "I've got a sheet for my bed.. etcetera.. If you want to explain it, you can leave a message on my YouTube profile, thanx!

    But dude, this is really really good! My compliments!

  • @hammetjuh Hi Hammetjuh, basically, during the verses I just play a standard blues shuffle in E but I palm mute most of it to the ringing of the strings down and obv play it quite fast (kind of like a swing beat). Hope this helps, if not, let me know and I'll try get you some tabs.

    Cheers, Jim ;)

  • Hey lad, That is ace :D

    I know you probably done it yourself but did you learn that version from online?

    I really need to learn this song...and this version is the business!

    Tab anywhere or could you tell me chords you play?

  • Alright dude. It's a version I made up myself mate. Basically a shuffle worked round the chords E, A7 and B7. Like a blues shuffle but with a more rock n roll tempo if that helps. I'm sure if you work around those chords whilst listening to this version you'll work it out. Let me know if not n I'll see bout tabbing it.

    Jim ;)
