Notes: Again, I separated the verses to emphasize the musical structure
of the song, and the places where the music repeats. You can notice
that in the 1st Verse, there is a section added (C x 2) that is not in
the 2nd Verse. That was to give more space between the Intro and the
1st Verse. Section A is always followed by section B, and because
section B has an extra beat in it, the song can't go back and start the
Verse on part B (without being very obvious). So, part C is just played
an extra 2 times. The Bass line is very sneaky because even though some
of the notes change from measure to measure, they only change by a
half-step! If you turn up the bass on your stereo and listen closely,
you'll understand. Playing just the bass notes along with the song
makes it even easier to spot. Enjoy!
