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 majorC x 2) that is not in
the 2nd Verse. That was to give more space between the Intro and the
1st Verse. Section A augmentedA is always followed by section B, and because
section BB has an extra beat in it, the song can't go back and start the
Verse on part BB (without being very obvious). So, part C majorC 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!
