This is to expand upon the work of the first tabber. Some have complained that it's
to read and I'm putting it in the usual UG format with chord diagrams:

This is how I play it--maybe not exactly how it sounds on the original recording, but
darn close. I find it difficult to play Bb so I sometimes use the fifth and when I'm
adventurous I use Bb13 (x20233). A flashy technique I also like is to bar the C11 chord
your thumb then quckly jump back to the barred F chord during he chorus. Listen to the
over and over and you'll get the rhythm. I play it a little more uptempo than the Dan.
