Lyle varies between Riff 1 and Riff 2 before and after the chorus.
You just have to listen to the song.

This transcription is my own work (with help from Harold Nagge).
I've meant to do this for a long time, namely to give back a little of what
others have taken the time to give to me. Thank you all.
