don't even play bass - but it sounds good on an acoustic if you really 
get into the blues mood though.

E   00 5 00 5 00 3 4 5   
                        
Repeat a few times then use the same progression on the A string.
  
     (This is all through the song with variations...)

when John starts to solo though, it's gets a little faster...
something like this,
    
E  00 55  00 55 00 33 44 55 00
  Repeat throughout most of the song i think, i usually just 
experiment around a few blues progressions though.

The following is in there somewhere aswell,

  A          5 5    3 
  D  5 5   3            pause....... 33 44 55 and back to the first

That's about it, simple but catchy.  Comments/corrections or just a
