	After you played this two riffs you can go over in progression with
	the Em,C,D,G chords along with the harmonica. Do that 3 times and play
	the first piece of the intro tab:

	           Em7			       D             Em

	e |--------0---0---0---0---0---0---0-|-2---(2)---2---0-----------------|
	B |--------3---3---3---3---3---3---3-|-3---(3)---3---0-----------------|
	G |--------0---0---0---0---0---0---0-|-2---(2)---2---0-----------------|
	D |--------2---2---2---2---2---2---2-|-0---(0)---0---2------------0h2--|
	A |--------2---2---2---2---2---2---2-|---------------2-------0h2---h2--|
	E |--0-----0---0---0---0---0---0---0-|---------------0-----------------|

	This is an examples of how you can eventually play the verses:
	Play the chorus in the rhytm like the intro.

	           Em       C                D             G

	e |----------------0---0--(0)-----|------2---(0)--3---3---(0)-------|
	B |----------------1---1--(0)-----|------3---(0)--0---0---(0)-------|
	G |---------0------0---0--(0)-----|--2---2---(0)--0---0---(0)-------|
	D |---------2------2---2----------|------0--------0---0-------------|
	A |-------2---0----3---3----------|-0-------------2---2-------------|
	E |---0---------------------------|---------------3---3-------------|

	This is the riff Neil plays while singing the last verse:
	"And I'm getting old".
