Elton John "Bennie and the Jets"

Lesson description: I've been meaning to arrange this song for years. I always loved it, but the vocal melody is so.....elusive. Anybody who can understand what Elton is singing there deserves some kind of super-hearing auditory award.

From a technical standpoint, there's a lot of my usual tropes--CAGED shapes & their appropriate pentatonic companions, selective use of open strings when possible, right and left hand muting, and string rakes.
