Tab

My first tab, but I know that it is correct. I noticed that nobody has written this tab so I took it upon  myself, mesiah like, to write it myself. xD

b = bend

Riff: 

-6b 6 -5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -5     6
-6b 6 -5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -5
7b  6 -5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -5     6
-6b 6 -5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -5
7
7 -6
-6 6 7 -6 6 5 -5 5 4 

^^ There is also a muted trumpet playing that, but there is a harmonica there.

For the verse simply play a 12 bar blues sequence in D, which, simply, is:

4 4 4 4
4 4 4 4
-5 -5 -5 -5 
4 4 4 4
6 6 6 6
-5 -5 -5 -5
4 4 4 4

Repeated throughout the verse. Feel free to repeat notes and bend notes but remember your accompanying the vocals.

Solo: 

4 4 -5 6b
(hold 6)
-6 7 -7 -6 6 -6 -5b
(hold -5)
4 4 -5 6b
-6 7 -7 8 -8b
Hold 9b
