I'm not exactly sure about the short transition bass riffs after each chorus. Listen to CD closely and you can find an appropriate fill. Special thanks to Sparkster for giving me the right notes to this song. See http://www.bluerodeo.com/forums/thread/317522.aspx Tabbed 8/25/2007 by Scott Herzog at aerosurfer21@yahoo.com.
