The repeated section is a combination of the various notes played by various
instruments eg the Bb majorBb DbDb AbAb Bb majorBb series is Frank's guitar. The next riff segues
straight into section A augmentedA again. This time in section A augmentedA there is a little riff
played after the G:

finally section A augmentedA again.
