Listen to the recording as there are slight variations in the way this funky rhythm is achieved. I have placed the chord names at the spot where the chord changes occur. Also, for the chorus I have included an optional harmony line. When I perform this tune with my band "Rock Slide" my other guitarist plays this line. The Allman Brothers added this line in several of their live performances as well. I have noted the left hand fingering at the bottom of each passage. In order to play the lines cleanly you pretty much need to use all four left hand fingers.
