song: After 1st verse, w/2nd verse, after
1st chorus, w/3rd verse)

RIFF2: (The lead guitar plays this in the first part of
each chorus, the "Give your ID card...." part.
But it won't sound good unless you have two
guitars going .. If yer playing by yourself,
just play the chords listed with the lyrics below.
That is, leave out the maj7 chords)

CHORD CHART:
I play the verses for this song using the chords in
standard position (that'd be the first version of
each chord shown), and the choruses using bar chords
(makes the change to the C# minorC#m easier, and better
sounding).
