As performed by The Animals

I’ve seen many submitions of this song with
the correct chords. But the arpeggio is not
so good on all of them. Some are almost OK,
some are bad and some are just downright
bizarre.
But THIS verson is very close to the autentic
sound. Actually, I don’t think it’s possible
to get any closer.

* - Let your plectrum slide down the strings on these
notes. If you didn’t get that, mail me and I’ll try
to explain it another way.
