Then the vocals start, the rhythm guitar is played like described above. The turnaround  
can be played sliding up the E major chord: 

    E     F      F#     G          B7 
I----------------------------------1----|I 
I-------0-----1------2-------------0----|I

I----------------------------------1----|I 
I---2-----3------4------5--2-0-1-2-2----|I 
I---------------------------------------|I 


There?s no guitar solo, so all we need are the finishing 9th chords, which may sound a  
bit too jazzy for this song (there are no other 9th chord used in this Blues!): 


   D#9    E9 
I--6------7-----|I 
I--6------7-----|I 
I--6------7-----|I
