The "A riff" is about the same except it uses an A intead of an E. e-0---0----------------0--| B-2---2----------------2--| G-2---2----------------2--| D-2---2----------------2--| A-0---0----------------0--| E-X---X---3---5---3----X--| The chord progression during the organ solos sounds like: E A E B E Here are the lyrics with the chords: (N.C. means "No Chord") N.C.
