Jesus Just Left Chicago
Standard Tuning
You can get the turnaround and solo from other tabs out there. I think this gives
you a real easy to follow chord arrangement with lyrics.
The GuitarPro tab I looked at showed this song with 3 guitars. I've played it with
two - one doing these chords, turnaround, and solo. And the other guitar doing the
basic blues shuffle.
