This is a simplified version that just gives the basic chord changes so that one can
play it through from start to finish. You?ll probably need to have a listen to get the
rhythm right. There?s some lead guitar between the verses that I have not included here 
but it sounds like it?s just a matter of messing about in the Eminor blues scale. Enjoy!
