            I can’t get no relief

This same strumming pattern is played throughout the rest of the song with the exception of Dylan’s first two little harmonica bits where it stops then comes back in afterwards. I love this song and haven’t found another remotely good tab of it so here is my effort – and this sounds *** close to the proper one. It’s one of my first submitted tabs so please vote on it if you think its alright. Cheers.
