VERSE 2:
SAX SOLO (over the chords of an entire verse)
VERSE 3: Same as verse 1, except for the a few lines.
NOTES:
On the single notes I usually play thirds to give it a better
sound. For instance, play the Bb-C-D with the left hand on the
piano, and then an octave higher with the right hand play D-Eb-F.
The same can be done for the notes leading to the AbAb chord. Also,
it seems as if he is riding on a G+G note a lot, so a Bb(add 6th)
could be played in place of the Bb majorBb chord.
