* Continue here from "**" with faster tempo.
** If you started with 400 seconds on the timer, you'll have 100 seconds
   remaining at this point. The game plays some riff for 6 game seconds, then
   it continues on with the tempo sped up considerably. (I haven't figured out
   the riff yet. For a cool effect, rest for a measure then play the rest
   twice as fast.) Go back to the "*" and keep looping until you feel like
   beating down Mario with your guitar.

After you master this tune, you'll be able to play many other Mario songs!
Parts of this theme appear in: Super Mario 64 (Press Start screen), Super
Mario Bros. 2 (Sub-Space theme), Super Mario Bros. 3 (Music Box theme), and
many more. Keep your ears open and you'll notice it in a lot of Mario games.
