Description

The tune starts out with a signature lick played on a harmonica. We've adapted the part for electric guitar, starting up at the 14th position (A major pentatonic). There's some nice bends here, then a slide up to the 17th position to play out of the A major chord shape. Back down to the 14th position for a descending bluesy lick to end it off.

Hold out that final bend right at the end of the song, and milk it before resolving back to the A note.
