Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man,
play a song for me
I'm not sleepy
and there ain't no place I'm goin' to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man,
play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning,
I'll come followin' you
Take me for a trip upon
your magic swirling ship
All my senses have been stripped
And my hands can't feel to grip
And my toes too numb to step
Wait only for my boot heels to be wanderin'
I'm ready to go anywhere,
I'm ready for to fade
Unto my own parade
Cast your dancing spell my way
I promise to go under it
I first encountered this toon about 6 months ago as background music for an Isle of Wight motorcyle race on youtube so I looked it up.
Turns out there is a guitar tutorial on it, complete close up of the fretting and tablature.

So I got on it like steenk on a munkee.
I can play both guitar parts and the bassline which I figured out on my own.
Picking around on the keyboard stuff too.
FWIW, for anyone interested playing guitar the is a youtube channel named Mr Tabs and they do a whole bunch of popular toons so it’s easier to learn how to play them.

Crying shame they didn’t have this stuff 50+ years ago when I started playing.
Another FWIW, I can teach ANYONE how to play this toon if they are sitting right in front of me eyeball to eyeball, in about 15 minutes.

Sounds like a lot of stuff going on to the uninitiated and that’s Eddies magic as he was a master at economy of motion.

If you got beauty, beauty, just raise ’em up
‘Cause every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top
Yeah, my mama she told me “don’t worry about your size”
(Shoo wop wop, sha-ooh wop wop)
She says, “Boys like a little more booty to hold at night”
(That booty, uh, that booty booty)
You know I won’t be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll
(Shoo wop wop, sha-ooh wop wop)

I’ve been learning the intro to AC/DC Hells Bells. Awful song but great intro. Also learning Fly Me Courageous by Drivin and Cryin.
