Playing Notes:

1. Just one bass guitar (looped) and one rhythm guitar. As with many classics,
   this song is very easy to play. Just get the rhythm down and you are set.

2. I am omitting lyrics since the whole song is based on this simple arrangement.

3. Official song history: http://www.koolandthegang.com/history/history_1972.html
