Do that 3 times and play the first piece of the intro tab: Em7 D (xx0232@1) Em (022000@1) e|--------0---0---0---0---0---0--|-2---(2)---2---0-----------------| (022000@1) B|--------3---3---3---3---3---3--|-3---(3)---3---0-----------------| (x2444x@1) G|--------0---0---0---0---0---0--|-2---(2)---2---0-----------------| (320003@1) D|--------2---2---2---2---2---2--|-0---(0)---0---2------------0h2--| (xx0232@1) A|--------2---2---2---2---2---2--|---------------2-------0h2---h2--| (x02220@1) E|--0-----0---0---0---0---0---0--|---------------0-----------------| (022100@1) This is an examples of how you can eventually play the verses: Play the chorus in the rhytm like the intro.
