Transcription made by Phlippe Straforelli

Simple, but sweet. The whole song consists of one riff, with some 
fills added on now and then. Being a fan of trip-hop, this song 
reminds me a lot of the style, so it's easy to understand why it's my 
favorite Jamiroquai song.

Basic riff:                                                           
G--)---------------------------------------------------------X-5h7--
D--)------.---.-----------------.---.----------------.---.-----------.--
A--)---5-5--5---(rest)---5-5--5--(rest)---3-3--3--------------
E--)-----------------------------------------------------------------

G--)-----------------------X--5h7---------------------------------
D--)---------------.---.-----------.-----------------.----.---------
A--)---(rest)--3-3--3-------------------5----5-5---5-----(repeat)--
E--)---------------------------------------------------------------

Remember that the notes with the dots are played in staccato. 
Now, from time to time, Stuart adds some pretty cool fills between 
the D's and the C's (during the second rest). Here they are:

Fill 1:
G--)-------------------------------------------X-5h7-----------
D--)------.----.--------------------.----.-------------------   etc.
A--)---5-5---5----------------3-3---3------------------------------
E--)---------------X-X--3--------------------------------------
That one is played the most often throughout the piece.

Fill 2:
G--)----------------------------------------------X-5h7----------------
D--)--------.----.---------------------.----.-------------------------
A--)-----5-5---5-----------------3-3---3--------------------------------
E--)-----------------X-X--8\\------------------------------------------
That's played a couple of times in the middle part of the song.

Fill 3:
G--)-------------------X-11-13~~\------------------X-5h7------------------
D--)---------.----.---------------------------.----.----------------etc
A--)------5-5---5-----------------------3-3---3-------------------------
E--)--------------------------------------------------------------
That one's played around the end a couple of times.
