Verse 3 –
this is a bit complicated, but Guitar 2 (Drew) and the keyboard
player (Romey) are switching off notes. I won't tab the keyboard
player's stuff, but he plays his notes on the count (1 2 3 4) For Guitar
2(Drew), the individual notes are played on the upbeats (the +, or 'and' of the count).
Guitar 2 Riff:
Measure 1: Measure 2: Measure 3:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
