As you may have guessed, this is just a blues song so I won't
bother with the main body of the song - it's just A D and E.
It does have a nice little intro on acoustic though :
I think you need a capo for this one - on the 3rd or 4th fret.

This is a fun way to play the 12-Bar portion of this song by yourself.
When the Beatles recorded George's upbeat ode to his wife, the 6 string
part, other than the intro (see transcription by Howard Wright), is a
little boring. This transcription combines some of the slide guitar part
and the 6 string into an easy way to jazz up this classic.

Player Notes
1. All of the chords are in the base E chord position, just barred at the
higher frets, real easy to play
2. I damp the base E, and then slowly remove the damp as I move up the neck.
Gives a good crescendo effect.
3. No Capo, no bottle neck slide, just your fingers.

Here is an attempt to emulate the slide part and a turn around.
This is a brief 6 bars and simple but, this is the best I can do!
