Anybody?

I would love to be able to strum this while failing to sing it half as pretty as Jim!

This song is really hard. What I'm playing is PROBABLY not right, infact im quite sure its not right because for one theres two guitars and two I think theyre not in regular tuning.

But what I have been playing that vaugely sounds like it can work is:


Intro: A A(4th string open though)

A                         E
i'm going down to rose marie's
Bm                      A
she never does me wrong
A                          E
she puts it to me plain as day
D                      Bm
and gives it to me for a song.


yeah...the rest I need help on....maybe this will help...maybe someone can correct me and tell me this sounds nothing like it.

So, that tab is okay but I decided to go with my instinct of the first chord being A and my guitar teacher who is a God, agreed with me and told me this tab is correct. This is J.J.'s version, not Bobs

Any one want to try this out?
Intro
A A(with index finger realeased from D string)

Verse
A                          E
I'm going down to Rose Marie's
D                          A
She never does me wrong
A                    E
She puts it to me plain as day
D                                 Bm
And gives it to me for a song
A                                   A7
It's a wicked life but what the hell
D                     Bm
everybody's got to eat
A                                  E
And I'm just the same as anyone else
D                              Bm
When it comes to scratching for my meals

A                     A7 D
Goin' to Acapulco        
A             G
Goin' on the run.
A                             A7 D
Goin' down to see soft gut
A                          Bm      
  Goin' to have some fun.

interlude thingy
A     A D

Verse Two

A                E
Now, whenever I get up
D                              A
And can't find what I need,
A                                   E
I just make it down to Rose Marie's
D                             Bm
and get something quick to eat.
A                                 A7
It's not a bad way to make a living
D                           Bm
And I ain't complainin' none.
A                                  E
For I blow my blunt (?) and drink my rum
D                                   Bm
And then go on home and have my fun
