the riffs above marked with a (*) are the first two used

in the tune. i'm not going to do a bar for bar, note for note

transcription here. this is an excellent tune for aspiring

rockers to experiment with licks in the open position, key

of E. some other ideas you might try:

|--3p0----------|---------------|---------3---|
|------3p0------|---------------|-----3-----5-|
|----------2-0--|---------------|-2/4---4-----|
|---------------|-2p0-----------|-------------|
|---------------|-----2-1-0-----|-------------|
|---------------|-----------3b--|-------------|

etc. just pick the open E string twice, strum up on an

open E chord, and play a lick. with a little sinceriy

and a heckuva lotta tone, something as simple as this

has sold lots of records. stepping down from my soapbox-

the chorus is equally simple:

A E
