The main RIFF used throughout the song is:
Basically play a few D#'s, then C#'s, then almost
repeat
the pattern but quickly come back for a D# instead of the last C#.
The little filler notes (FILL) are just a little "tickling" of the first
two strings (e and B) held at the 8th fret (just mash down your third
finger
which should be on the 8th fret from playing the D# anyway).

Well my eyelids said four-thirty
D# FILL
and the radio clock said six
and I was thinking up a reasonable excuse
D# FILL
I might have slept til yesterday
D# FILL

what's twenty-four hours more or less to lose
I've burned up letters and I've burned up souvenirs
And left no traces Lord that I was ever here
Eb G# Bb RIFFAnd I won't be Louisiana lowdown and blue
BRIDGE:
A# D# FILL

Bb RIFFInstead I closed my eyes and she wasn't there
