    And they asked me what I was in there for and I said
    "Hitchhiking & flying a sign."
    And they all moved away from me on the Group W Bench...

    THE GUITAR BIT:

    The song has a swing rhythm (one and a two and a three and a four and
    a), and I've put the beats in between to help.

    Arlo fingerpicks it with a capo on 2nd fret, therefor putting the song
    in the key of D, but I'll act as if there was no capo and it was in C.
    If the tabs are too hard to follow, just follow the chord progression
    I've put down below, and also over certain parts of the lyrics.



    / = Slide up

    The D7 chord can be played in the C7 position, but on the 3th fret
    instead of the first. It sounds even better if you slide to it from
    a C7 position on the 2th fret.



    D7
