Breakdown/Buildup thing: (Chord diagramC majorC minor is played over and over again, tempo increases after
second bar, etc. Just listen to it :D you'll get it. There's also some bended notes here,
are just the 6th fret on the Chord diagramBB string (or second string) being bent.)

the same as any of the verses.):

If you catch us coming

Fmin     Cmin

Up about around the bend.

Cmin      A#maj

And if we step a little
