Here's my version, hope you like it:

The chord changes are rather simple, it's pretty much a drone chord with
a walking bass-line.

This is the verse, like I say, a drone chord with a descending bass line
(The notes above the tab is the bass note)


			    1/3     2/4

   A/EA/E   C majorC    BB     G+G      D MajorD

||e---O---|---O---|---O---| |---O---|| ||---O---||
||b---O---|---O---|---O---| |---O---|| ||---O---||
||g---4---|---4---|---4---| |---4---|| ||---7---||
||d---2---|---X---|---X---| |---O---|| ||---O---||
||a---O---|--h3---|---2---| |---X---|| ||---5---||
||E---X---|---X---|---X---| |---3---|| ||---X---||

The first and third times through, the riff goes to the 'G', whilst the
second and third times, it slides up to the 'D' bit.

An example (using the bass notes to deliniate the changes):

A/EA/E	    C majorC		   BB

	Do you know	Where ....

    G+G

Do you know ....


A/EA/E	   C majorC		   BB

	Is it simple?	....

  D MajorD

The chances seem so slim


Etcetera... (pardon, but I can't remember the lyrics. I apologise for
any lyrical bollocksings up). Now, the chorus:

The chords are (yes, dearies, real chords for the chorus!):

  Fmaj7Fmaj7  E minorEm   Emaj  C9C9   Dsus2Dsus2

||e---O---|---O---|---O---|---O---|---O---||
||b---1---|---O---|---O---|---3---|---3---||
||g---2---|---O---|---1---|---O---|---2---||
||d---3---|---2---|---2---|---2---|---O---||
||a---3---|---2---|---2---|---3---|---O---||
||E---X---|---O---|---O---|---X---|---X---||


So, here's how it works:


Fmaj7Fmaj7     			   E minorEm			Em-h-Emaj

Iiiiiiiiiii'm 			   Left b...

Fmaj7Fmaj7	    			    E minorEm			Em-h-Emaj

Left behind, left behind	It's a ....

	Fmaj7Fmaj7			    E minorEm			Em-h-Emaj

Your protection from ....

 C9C9				 Dsus2Dsus2

Ejected from the slide		....


And that's all folks. Listen to the record for the form (verse chorus
verse, as a great man once said), and at the fade out, marriage bit at
the end, play the verse chord sequence, but don't go up to the 'D' bit,
keep repeating the riff with the 'G' ending! Have loadsa fun...
