Im Bad Like Jesse James by John Lee Hooker

the whole song is basically one riff:
---------------------------|
---------------------------|
---------------------------|
---------------------------|
----------0-2--------------|
--------3-----3-0----------|

what i like to do is make it more exciting
by adding more drama
so when he gets to the part where he says h'es gonna take by the river I add
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----0-2-------x-x--x-x-----0-2-------x-x--x-x-|
--3-----3-0---x-x--x-x---3-----3-0---x-x--x-x-|

then to add more suspense i throw in an Eb chord
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
----0-2-------2-2--2-2-----0-2-------2-2--2-2-|
--3-----3-0---0-0--0-0---3-----3-0---0-0--0-0-|
