  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------| (the music starts on the
|-----------------------------------------|  5th beat, its also much
|-7---------------------------------------|  easier to make a more
|---0-----------------------------8-8-7-8-|  accurate loop this way)
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------|
|---------10----10------------10----------|
|-7-7-(b9)7---(b9)----(b9)--7-7-(b9)7---(b9)--------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------| (this loop is the same as
|-10----10------------10------------------|  the above one, but it starts
|---(b9)----(b9)--7-7-(b9)7---(b9)--------7-7-(b9)7-|  on the 5th beat, in true
|-----------------------------------------|  Reich Phasing style)
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------| (this loop also starts on
|-5-----6-5---6-6-8-6-5-----------6-6-8-6-|  the 5th beat)
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------| (this loop is identical to the
|-5---6-6-8-6-5-----------6-6-8-6-5-----6-|  one above, but it starts on
|-----------------------------------------|  the 4th beat)
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

  |       |       |       |       |
|-----------------------------------------| (this is the cello part and the
|-----------------------------------------|  reason that this song is best
|-----------------------------------------|  played in Drop D tuning, play
|-----------------------------------------|  these last four sections one
|---------5-------------------------------|  by one over the loop for best
|-----------5-----------------------------|  effect)

  |       |       |       |       |
