Sorry it had to get cut in half. But yeah I use all those notes in Not Fade away just for the E portion alone. For the A parts I use A major pentatonics with a little chromatics on that. Heres a small chunk of chromatics you can use for the A major part.

Hope that helps. If anyone can add some chromatics to my scales let me know. Oh and I just started usin a scale I found on a Podcast called the Voodoo Blues scale.
