Yeah there's a hole, yeah there's a hole....

Harmonica.....to end.....

This is a top tune, one of the heavier ones on a superb album and I haven't done 
it justice by just offering what I think the chords are, hence novice difficulty.

You might want to invite a couple of mates around to do a drum and bass 
accompaniment.  Not that kind of drum and bass....
