The timing on this is funky and only approximate because the triplet is

really more swing time.  Listen to the song and it'll be easy.

Riff 1  (Main Riff in verse and Solo)

       Triplet

G -----7--------7-----------------|

D ----------7---------------------|

A 5---5-----------5-------------3-|

E ------------------2---3-3-4-4---|

  1   2   3   4   1   2   3   4

Often the walking bass has notes omitted

Riff 2  (Bridge)

G -----5--------------------------|

D ----------5---------------------|

A 3---3---------3-3---------------|

E ------------------0---1---2-2-3-|

  1   2   3   4   1   2   3   4

Riff 3  (Break)

G --------------------------------|--------------------------------|

D --2---3---4---5-----------------|---3---4---5--------------------|

A --------------------------------|--------------------------------|

E --------------------------------|--------------------3-----------|

  1   2   3   4   1   2   3   4                        Hold this note

This break sounds strange because it's not what the horns are playing

(especially the second time through).

Basic structure...

Intro:  Riff1 (2x)

        Riff1 (8x)

        Riff2 (5x)

        Riff3 (1x)
