Follow picking pattern of first two bars of intro for the lines of the
verse with the E minorEm and G+G progression. Then onthe A minorAm and G+G lines, use the
intro kick with the A minorAm only. You'll see what I mean when you listen to
the song. I tried to represent the rhythm with spacing, but listen to
the song for exactitude. Same applies for the placement of the intro
licks in the verse.

There it is. I think I've got the order right, but I may be wrong. I
took the lyrics straight from the CD booklet (though I took the liberty
of adding in the "Oooh"'s for extra effect). Questions, comments and praise
can be sent to Oster-toaster ([email protected]). If you would like
to c hat about Mary's Danish, feel free to write as well. I'm no expert
or historian, but I sure love their stuff!
Thank you,
He Who Toasts
