Listen to the song to get an idea how the pick movement goes, especially for the last

words there. You go through the G - G7 transition twice pretty quick there before ending

a single A chord.

Just listen to any album or live version, and it should click right away. Either way,

it's a fun riff and song to play.

#There's actually three unique ways of playing this after the opening strokes during the
#verses. This is done by hitting the last few strings a couple of times between the riffs
#(B and e strings, probably). Nile Rodgers of Chic (who produced the Notorious album)
#actually plays guitar on the album version. And the band's two main guitarists over the
#years, Warren Cuccurullo and Andy Taylor, have each played this song live during their
#respective tenures in the band, with Taylor's being the current one.
#
#Might only be for the hard core fans, but here's my estimates on how hitting those few
#strings stack up after each part of the riff:
#Nile: A: down, up down. B: down, up, down, up. Some variation on the timing after the B
#riff as the song moves along.
#Warren: Really the same as Nile's, with three or four strokes after the B riff usually.
#Probably the most simple.
#Andy: Can usually be four strokes up and down after A and B, though he's been known for
#playing as much as six after the A riff! Requires the most moving.
#
#
#And here's how the chorus goes. These chords and the main riff practically make up the
#song.
#
#A: 577655
#A7: 575655
#G: 355433
#G7: 353633

[A]You own the money,[A7] you contr[G]ol the witness       [G7]
[A]I hear you're lone[A7]ly - don't[G] monkey with my busin[G7]ess
[A]You pay the profit[A7]s to justi[G]fy the reasons       [G7]
[A]I heard your promi[A7]se but i d[G]on't believe it -    [G7]
[G]That's why i'[G7]ll do it agai[A]n

Listen to the song to get an idea how the pick movement goes, especially for the last
words there. You go through the G - G7 transition twice pretty quick there before ending
a single A chord.

Just listen to any album or live version, and it should click right away. Either way,
it's a fun riff and song to play.
