B7------------------------------7-------7-----------------------------7-----|
G----7------------------------------7------7------------------7----------7--|
D-------------7-----7---------------------------------7--7------------------|

E---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Then RIFF 3 is played.Now for the second solo this use structures for the first one.And
outro or end of the song play this:
E-------------------------------|
B-------------------------------|
G-------------------------------| and I think the final chord is Em.
D----7--7--5--4--4h5--5---------|
A-------------------------------|
E-------------------------------|
It's cold outside
It gets so hot in here
And the boys and girls collide
To the music in my ear
I hear the children crying
And I know it's time to go
I hear the children crying
Take me home
A painted face
And I know we haven't long
We thought that we have the answers
It was the questions we had wrong
I hear the children crying
And I know it's time to go
I hear the children crying
Take me home
Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
Sad song, sad song
