Of course, the actual picking pattern is
more improvisatory than this, but this
is the idea. The acoustic demo has no 
bridge, so I did not include the bridge
from the final version, but creating your 
own with the context of the given chords 
shouldn't be too difficult, and it can 
simply be omitted. In terms of precise 
timing, this song is in swing, so I've 
tabbed it so that one "-" is equivalent 
to an eigth note triplet.
