Tuning:  guitar 1 - d B G D G (5-string open G tuning)

guitar 1 - rhythm - Keith Richards
guitar 2 - acoustic rhythm - Keith Richards (this is basically
the guitar 1 part played on acoustic under the electric guitars,
although it plays some rhythms differently.  I'm not going to
tab it because it's so similar to the guitar 1 part,
I just mention it because it's there.)

So there you have it.  There's some slide guitar earlier in the
song than 1:31, but it's very quiet, and either plays along with guitars
