Keep in mind that the parts below are the basic groove 
of the tune. As usual, feel free to improvise around the 
chord changes. But on this particular song, less is more. 
Also keep in mind that on this tune (and most Motown/R&B 
songs) many of the passing tones and chromatic runs happen 
between the sixteenth notes. The rhythm markings below the 
tab are not meant to be exact. Think James Jamerson.
