OK, here's a video

Sir! You have shamed me into taking action. My very first YouTube video. Be kind...

Actually, there's two. One played up to speed and another slowed down and pointing out some of the details/playing tips/ideas.

For me, playing this song on a single row has too many compromises. On the triple row, you can play all of the arpeggios, full chords and blends. I tried to point some of that out on the second video.

Re: OK, here's a video

Merci, mon ami. You have finally earned that tshirt I gave you long ago!

Sincerely, thank you very much. Gives me something to work with, and a good little tutor on arpeggiating I IV V.

Re: B part chords

David,
Great breakdown!

There is one difference in the "B" part in the arpeggios of your version as compared to Clifton's version.

It's in the third arpeggio.
