After that, go back to the chorus and that's it. Play around with those solo riffs a bit, improvise as much or
as little as you like. This is almost exactly how Dean Wareham plays it live. If you have some corrections or
more solo riffs he throws in that I left out, please shoot me an email and I'll fix it. Thanks!
