play that twice

at the end of each one theres this lick

then it's the chorus again
played the same way


the ending is played the same as the verse
and then electric guitar plays the same line
as after the chorus

and that's about it
it might look like a rough tab
but it's not hard to put the pieces where they belong

just have fun with it
