The 6th (lowest) string is removed when playing this song. Another more or less trademark of Richards.

You already played it (the last chord in the intro) The chord is just carried into the chorus. Note that I have also not tabbed in the lowest string. P = pull-off. M = muted note. / = slide up. : = repeat. Any probs, feel free to mail me. Have fun :) Mike.
