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