The full eight-bar progression is played like this:

  [C]                                                  [F]

E|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|------------------------|

Sound is important
Quo-songs are often based on the boogie-woogie shuffle (tripletfeel). This song however,
is based on a straight-four rock feel (straight eights). You have to play the first note
staccato (short) and the second one legato (keep it ringing as long as possible) to get
that typical Rick Parfitt rythm-sound. See next example. Dots (.) mean staccato,
underscore (__) is legato. You also have to emphasize the notes with the dots.
A|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|
E|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|

. __ . __ . __ . __
If you find difficulty in doing this, you first can try it without the pinky. Practice
slow at first and gradually speed up your tempo.
Progression II

Further on the F-chord, in the fourth bar of the progression, is replaced by a F#dim7.
Play the full progression now like this:


  [C]                                                  [F]                                        
E|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------|
B|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------|
G|------------------------|------------------------|------------------------|
D|------------------------|------------------------|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|
A|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|
E|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|------------------------|

  [F#dim7]                                [G]                                                          
E|-------------------------------|------------------------|------------------------|
B|10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10-|------------------------|------------------------|
G|8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8--|------------------------|------------------------|
D|10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10-|------------------------|12-12-14-14-12-12-14-14-|
A|9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9--|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|
E|-------------------------------|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|------------------------|

  [C]                                                                                          
E|------------------------|------------------------|
B|------------------------|------------------------|
G|------------------------|------------------------|
D|------------------------|------------------------|
A|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|10-10-12-12-10-10-12-12-|
E|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--|

The last thing I want to say about the rythm is that you have to keep time. Hit the
strings exactly on the time-spot.
