I think the chords are pretty close - if anything there's too many in the chart. It's got that old-time New Orleans blues progression...if you try playing it bouncing the root and the fifth in the bass like you would a country song you can get a pretty cool interpretation. I've been trying to take the song into a Rory Gallagheresque direction - helluva lot of fun to play. Enjoy!
