Play this whole part twice over.

The verse and chorus are then repeated. Only play the second part of this after the second
chorus which leads into the breakdown.

This second part seems to be mixed over the first part of the breakdown. After this it
goes back into Intro B and C before and then back into the Chorus and finishes with this.

This is near perfect but if you have any comments or improvements then feel
free to email them to me, if unsure of rythm or number of times a note is
played just listen to the song...
