Tab Request: Al Green, "I'm a Ram"

I've been trying to figure this one out by ear and can't get it right. I've tried searching every site I can find and can't find it tabbed anywhere either.

Thanks for whatever help you can pass along.

Resurrecting this thread from the dead...

I was looking for sheet music for this tune. Couldn't find it. Decided to take on the task of transcribing it. Here's my first draft. It may not be perfect. Some of the note durations might be off, (i.e. even though I have written a dotted 8th note, it might be played more staccato and not held for the full duration). Some of the notes might not be exactly right, but if you're playing this tune with a band, they should pretty much all work and at the least will add some variation.

I'm no pro at transcription. I'm still learning to read (and write) music. I'm open to useful feedback. Hopefully this will be helpful for someone and at the least will provide a good starting point for someone who is learning this song. Listening to the original will go a long way in getting a feel for Invalid Link Removed' articulation.
