BABY, STOP CRYING by Bob Dylan

That opening riff (which I call the "F riff") is:

E --3-----3-5~---|
B ----4----------|  the (3) just indicates that the bass plays an F note
G ------5--------|  throughout the "F riff".  Actually the bass plays
D -(3)-----------|  octaves of the F note.
A ---------------|
E ---------------|


NOTE:  The lyrics are the vocals that only Dylan sings and not the back-up
       singers, so don't be confused with the chording.
