Here's another jewel trascription - a little more complete.
I usually use a lot of chord substitutions & such when I play this,
this is just a very elemental version of what I play when I play this
song out. Remember the various D's (ex.Dsus), A's & B's that you can
play during this song to emphasise the words & changes.
Have fun . . . Ian . . .
