Okay, I just gave it a quick listen the other day and I think I've got the
basic bass line for the verses.  I didn't listen to the whole thing, so this
is just a little snipet, but it'll get you started.  The words I have no
clue to, so when you see BLAH BLAH BLAH, he's not actualy saying that, I
just didn't have time to figure them out.  I'll post a more complete
verseion as soon as possible.  Any comments or corrections much appreciated
to pacitto@ica.net.
Thanks, and enjoy!
