  This is one of my favorites....my guitar teacher
  figured this out.The song starts out with the horns
  and every thing.Then the guitar comes in with a
  combination of these three cords:

          e--9--10--11--|
          B--9--10--11--|
          G--9--10--11--|
          D-------------|
          A-------------|
          E-------------|

  Then you got the solo:      (this is probably correct)

  e--------------3---5--4--5--------------------|
  B------3--3--6--------------6--5--6-----------|
  G----3-----------6-------------------7--7--7--|
  D--5------------------------------------------|
  A---------------------------------------------|
  E---------------------------------------------|

  e--4--4--4--0--4--4--13--11--10--------------------|
  B--3--3--3--0--3--3--------------13----------------|
  G-----------------------------------10--10---------|
  D------------------------------------------10--12--|
  A--------------------------------------------------|
  E--------------------------------------------------|

  e--------------------------------------------|
  B---------10--13--12--10--12--13-------------|
  G--10--11------------------------12--14--15--|
  D--------------------------------------------|
  A--------------------------------------------|
  E--------------------------------------------|

  e--15--15--14--14--13--13--12--|
  B--15--15--14--14--13--13--12--|    (i think)
  G--15--15--14--14--13--13--12--|
  D------------------------------|
  A------------------------------|
  E------------------------------|

  After that he plays some kinda thing where he slides
  in from the 2nd fret on the g string to the 3rd.
  I don't exactly know. There is much more guitar in
  the song than is written here....I just wanted to
  get the main parts up on the internet. If you have
  any additions, e-mail 'em to me.
