This is the last song on 5 Man Acoustical Jam, and just shows you
what a good tune you can make with completely nil technical
difficulty.
  Tommy tunes normally, and Frank plays slide with open E (EBEG#BE)
tuning. Brian's bass line is VERY repetitive, but utterly essential.
  The final (That's all folks) section I have transcribed with Tommy
playing chords, and Frank playing lead, but since it's quite tricky
to play the lead with a slide on your finger, Tommy could well be
doing it (and I'm imagining the chords). Decide for yourselves.
  I apologize for any confusion Tommy's part may cause-I have
written some bars as chords with the rhythnm shown, and others with
full tablature, and others still with both. I know it's very
unconventional, but it's both lazy and complete , giving both the
notes and the rhythm

Lyrics:

(Spoken) Aw take it away Frankie baby!

<Frank's first solo>

I'm on a ride on out into the sun
and I won't be back til the mornin' come  <'comes' 2nd time>
I'm gettin down fo' boogie
I'm not alone

I said a come on, come on, gather round
'cause we're all gonna party down
I'm gettin down fo' boogie
I'm not alone   Oh

<Frank's 2nd solo>

Mr Skeoch

<Tommy's solo>

<First verse again>

I'm gettin' down fo' boogie
Down fo' boogie
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie
I'm not alone, yes I do
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie
I'm not alone, tell me how 'bout you?
I'm gettin down fo' boogie
I'm not alone
Aw'haw!

(Spoken) ababidaba..... That's all folksss'
