The above information was taken from www.crowesbase.com
Tuning: DGDGBD (Open G), with capo at 3rd fret. All fret numbers are in relation to the capo.
This one was a little tougher to tab out because Rich is low in the mix and there are
overdubs on the album version, so I had to resort to the Rockpalast video on youtube
This is a loose transcription of the basic parts of this song. As with any Black
song, improvising some of the rhythms and fills is encouraged.

During live versions however, it seems like Rich plays a combination of both riffs A and B.

This part is hard to hear on the album (thanks to Marc Ford drowning it out), but this
what I could gather from the youtube video.
