    Then start the rythim over agin. and keep doing that.


“Mama won't you let him, let him play some rock & roll , oh yeah”

After he says this go back to the opening again.


When he stops singing for a bit, it is played like this. 
Play it twice but after the first time, bar between 5 and 6 (harmonics) 
and pick 5th, 4th, then 3rd string for nice little sound.
