keep the chord the same with the D and Higher G, then just move you're thumb that plays the B flat/ B down to A and G to follow the melody. It's a piece of cake once you get that bit... ha. :/

[davzy0001]

The main riff is just a G chord in the right hand, with B root, so you're playing B>D>G and then the B just drops a semi and catches the B flat every time it plays. Hope this helps! :)

Thanks, Haha yes I learnt it by ear. It took me years to get it too, Still not got the middle section off correctly but I'd like to think I've added my own touch to it ! :) any specific part in the right hand I could help with? as there is a lot going on. Thanks David.

I haven't even got as far as the middle bit yet :D haha! Your version is brill! It's the main riff i'm trying to nail, that opens it (and keeps repeating throughout). I've got the G, F#, E, D, C, B, A etc stride left hand but its the right hand riff/chord-ing I just can't nail. You should do a birds-eye view so I can steal all your tricks :)

Amazing... is this by ear?! I've been trying to learn this for years, i've got the left hand down but I can't seem to figure the right hand out? Any tips? :)
