-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             Rhyme for the Summertime - G. Love and Special Sauce
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

Ok, so. Here are the chords that he plays throughout the entire song. There are just different rhythms.

E -12--9--5--3-|
B -10--7--3--1-|
G -11--8--4--2-|
D -10--7--3--1-|
A -12--9--5--3-|
E -10--7--3--1-|

Now, there’s the obvious rhythm that just occurs once every measure.

E -12------9-------5-------3------|
B -10------7-------3-------1------|
G -11------8-------4-------2------|
D -10------7-------3-------1------|
A -12------9-------5-------3------|
E -10------7-------3-------1------|
   1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

And then there’s the one that a little harder.

E -------12--------------9---------------5-----------|
B -------10--------------7---------------3-----------|
G -------11--------------8---------------4-----------|
D -------10--------------7---------------3-----------|
A -------12--------------9---------------5-----------|
E -9/10--10--0-6---7-----7---0-2---3-----3---0-0---1-|
   1 e & a 2 e & a 3 e & a 4 e & a 1 e & a 2 e & a 3

E -----3---------|
B -----1---------|
G -----2---------|
D -----1---------|
A -----3---------|
E -----1---0-0---|
   e & a 4 e & a

It switches back and forth throughout the song, but if you just listen, you’ll get it.

Then there’s the very end of the song where he goes into more of a bluesy feel. Those chords are:

A -3-----3---x-4-----4---x-5-----5---x-5-----5---x-|
E -x-----x---x-x-----x---x-x-----x---x-3-----3---x-|
   1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a 1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a

E -x-----x---x-5-----5-----x------x--x-6-----6---x-|
B -8-----8---x-6-----5-----10----10--x-8-----8---x-|

   1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a 1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a

E -x-----x---x-x-----x-----x-----x---x-x-----x-----3-|
B -5-----5---x-5-----7-----6-----6---x-5-----5-----5-|
G -4-----4---x-3-----4-----5-----5---x-4-----4-----4-|
D -5-----5---x-5-----5-----7-----7---x-3-----3-----5-|
A -3-----3---x-4-----4-----5-----5---x-5-----5-----3-|
E -x-----x---x-x-----x-----x-----x---x-3-----3-----x-|
   1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a 1 & a 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a 1

And that’s the whole song. Enjoy.
