Duration: 03:29

Tuning: B F# B E G# C# (Tune to drop D and then tune everything three half-steps lower. 
This is to get a low, bassy tone.)


Drum intro, then at 00:10:

G# |---------------------------|
E  |---------------------------|
B  |---------------------------| etc...
F# |---------------------------|
B  |---12-12-0-10-12-12-0-10---|


At approximately 00:36-00:40, 00:45-00:50, and 00:56-01:00, only 10:s are played:

G# |--------------------------|

The second verse starts at 01:19 and is the same as the first one with the first '10 break' 
at 01:31-01:35.


When Alison sings the first "Once in a while..." phrase at 01:38, Jamie plays this:

E  |-----------------------------|
B  |-----------------------------|
F# |-----------------------------|
B  |---12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12---|


...and then another '10 break' immediately after that at 01:40-01:44.


Then return to the standard verse riff.


Repeat for the second "Once in a while/10 break" thing which is at 01:47.


At 01:56 there is another chorus (With another slight variation!):
