(The song then goes off into an instrumental jam session, really cool but ...
drawn out. I use the following as an optional ending that works for a listening
audience)

     A         A#     B7          E
And that’s no way for me to get along
     A         A#     B7          E         (End on single E strum)
And that’s no way for me to get along
