So I just found out that this is an Al Greene song.  That's pretty far out man.

Tuning: Standard
Key: Dm

Bass Intro:
G|---------10\------------------------|---------10\-------------------------|
D|--10h12-----------------------------|--10h12------------------------------|
A|----------------10--10h12--8--------|----------------10--10h12----8-------|
E|-------------------------------10---|-------------------------------------|

Guitar:
e|-------------------------|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|---------3---------------|---------3---------------|
A|----3h5--3---------------|----3h5--3---------------|
E|---------1---3--3h5--1---|---------1---3--3h5--1---|

There is another part that Warren Haynes uses during this part.
He uses it to emphasize the power that this riff has.


e|---------------------------------|
B|----------(10)-------------------|
G|-----------10--------------------|
D|----10h12------------------------|
A|----------------10-10h12--8------|

Drive on
Until I get there
I got to drive one
Until I get there

I'm a ram, yes I am
I know just what to do
I keep on pushin baby
Until I get next to you


Chorus
e|--------------|
B|--------------|
G|----------2---|
D|---5--3---0---|
A|---5--3---0---|
E|---3--1-------|
              I'm A Ram
              Bet your life I am
              I'm A Ram
              And I wanna get next to you

Breakdown during the solo:

e|--------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------|
A|-------------10-10-9---10---12--|
E|-10---10---10-------------------|


next two verses:

I'm a ram, yes I am
And you are what I lack
I keep on pushin' you baby
You keep on pushin' me back

The ram caught in a bush
Needs to be free
Well somebody, I said
Come on, it's about me


So these are all the parts to the song.  I am not going to tab the solo becuase i feel 
should be your own creation when playing. IMPROVISE!!!
