I've done the time thingies on top 
of each bit as 234 1234 1 instead
of the usual 1234 1234 as that's the
 way the riffs are phrased.
I hope it make sense when you're 
playing it :) Throughout the song,
play a mixture of the first and 
second riffs.  The harmonica comes
in after every second verse.  I was 
going to write the lyrics but I
can't decipher many of them :)
