(Chorus...the second guitar is what really makes these choruses great, which
I think would be a shame to try and tab out, so I didn't.  Instead, he/she
should slide some octave chords up and around in different patterns, with the
first guitar playing the chords I'm giving here.  Listen to the record.)

(Here things get real interesting...my interpretation is that the rhythm
speeds up to double time, with 3 measures of 5/8 followed by one of 7/8.
And then they repeat it.  But really, listen to the record to get a clue
what I'm talking about.)

The next verse keeps that same time signature and those same chords, just
really muted and in a slightly different rhythm.  The booklet says the
whispered words are:


Then the next chorus (with two chord intro):
