Just about perfect! Minor technique note, it sounds closer to the song imo if you mute after every strum for the first F of every verse.

About this song: Mr. Blue Sky

Mr. Blue Sky is a song by the rock group Electric Light Orchestra.The song forms the fourth and last track on the "Concerto for a Rainy Day" suite on side three of the original two-LP set. The song features a heavily vocoded voice singing the phrase "Mister Blue Sky", (from 2:23 to 2:39, or from 2:20 to 2:34 on the 30th anniversary CD). Although the ending vocoded voice may sound like "Mister Blue Sky-yi", it is actually "Please turn me over" as it is the end of side three, and the listener is instructed to flip the LP over.
