Joanie, The Jehovah's Witness Stripper by Paul Thorn

Transcribed by DWdrummer67.

Note: Use U-G's 2nd fret variation for the A5 chord. When paul plays this
he rocks between the Em position and an F#5 position (4th fret same
strings. After the A5 position, he rocks to a B5 position (4th fret same
strings). I merely transcribbed it this way for ease of play. Another
great campfire tune. Enjoy!

Tuning: Standard (capo 4th fret)
