Well, I still haven't learned the correct way to do the chimes on the end of the intro. I first discovered the intro on the Sho-Bud instruction 33LP by Neil Flanz in 71'. Does anyone know of a video showing exactly how Buddy did the chimes? Once I can get the part just like BE did it then I'll start adding the song to my playlist for shows and other playing spots. At age 14, I first tried the chimes and didn't get it right. Now at age 58, still no cigar! This is the only part that's ever stumped me on any song. My motto is, "Never quit". Thanks.

Billy..same with me. I've tried for years to do it, without success. Maybe somebody will tell us where to get the tab or video.

I believe he chimes strings 6,5, and 4 twelve frets the root chord, then chimes the same strings seven frets up while depressing A and B pedals and again 5 frets up, releasing the pedals.

Ok, from reading your info., looks like the lick is in four parts, to me. Strings 4,5 & 6 w/ pedals down, 1st part is at 12th fret, 2nd step is at 5th fret, 3rd step is at 12th fret and 4th step at the 7th fret. Unless I misunderstood your info., that's what I got. Thanks buddy.
