This song fascinates me because of Fatima Mansions but also the original version, when I saw there was a Jerry version I just had to grab it. The intro doesn’t look advanced, but now I see there is a chord which stretches over 4 frets later in the song. I hope my stubby little fingers can handle it! If not, it will be fun trying.
