This is the intro to the oringinal recording of Okie From Muskogee.
It would start in E and modulate to F after the chorus.
e--0--0--0------0--0----------------0----------------------
b------------4---4------5----5--4-5--5-4---4---------------
g-1--2--3--4--4---4-4/6--6-6-------------6----4--2--1------
d---------------------------------------------6--4--2------
a----------------------------------------------------------
e----------------------------------------------------------
This is some of the fills they would use after it modulates to F.
You want to rake the chords.
(fill 1) (fill 2) (fill 3)
e-5-6-8--------- e--------------- e---------8-10-12------
d-6------x8^pbr6 b-5-6-8--------- b-5-6-8---8------------
g-5------------- g-5------x7pbr5- g-5-------9------------
d--------------- d-5------------- d-5-------10-----------
a--------------- a--------------- a----------------------
e--------------- e--------------- e----------------------
Forgive me if this isn't perfect, i'm doing this by memory.
Merle starts this in D and kicks up to E now and that's the
way we do it and there is no intro.
There is another fill they play now after the third one when
they go back into F or E(whatever key you play it in).
Be sure and let all the notes ring.
