This is a link to a 1968 live (audio only) version:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k17ln7BQ38o
For this live bridge they skip the whole of the
'Good mornin', Mr. Leitch..." section,
and for the Coda they finish with a bar of the
Intro riff, ending back on the C7
=====================================================
IGNORE THE CHORD BOX DIAGRAMS that the website
displays, they are generated automatically from a
generic database and often don't show the best
options for a particular chord progression.
I would suggest using the voicings in the text
column numbers below.
CAPO: 4th fret
(Will then sound in the recorded key of E)
Chord names & fret positions are relative to the capo
C7 = x32310 (E/G#) = 4xxxxx Dm = xx0231
F = 133211 A = x02220 C = x32010
Em = 022000 D = xx0232 D/A = x00232
E = 022100 D7 = xx0212 E7 = 022130
N.C. = No chords ^ = Emphasise the beats
