The above is how it is played the very first time through, ending the
ascension on the high G rather than the higher C on the top string.  After
that, it just mutates into

The (notes are picked rapidly, almost like a strum or ¨roll¨.

Then back into the verse.  All the verses are slightly different in their
fingering, but only slightly.  You can use the tab provided above as a
blueprint for the rest.

The only major departure comes in the instrumental section, so, yes, I’ve
tabbed that too.
