This 4 bar pattern is repeated throughout the verse.

Notes: the last phrase (the one above with 9-11 hammer on and pull offs) is slight
improv, and sometimes Cullum alters phrase. The other phrase he often uses in that
spot is shown below. Also the muted strings are played to give a soft rhythmic feel
between chords, they are not forceful and intentional muted attacks by Cullum. The
third chord (Dbm7) is sometimes played x46454.

G|-4-4--4-4--|
D|-4-6--6-4--|

This 4 bar pattern is repeated throughout the chorus.

Notes: There would also be muted strums in this section, and the strumming is not
always as I've written it. Listen to the song for the subtle changes from time to
time of the strumming and the muted strums.
