The rhythm to this last part is a repeating G and F progression just like the beginning of the chorus. As if singing Lord I was born a ramblin man over and over to the end of the song.If your playing rhythm to the song it helps to sing it to yourself to keep timing.You will be surprised how the lead notes fall into place once you learned how to play it.
