[Verse 2: same as second half of the first verse]

C# Bb F# C# Bb Eb
Bill Barret sent his postcards home to everyone he'd ever know,
C# Bb F#
They read: "fifty-nine cents gets you a good square meal"
G#
"From the people who care how you feel"

[Chorus, but repeat SECTION C2 twice]

(And they talk like this)

Solo: (this is done on some keyboard or other, but with a bit of creative
'wah-wah'ing, you can create pretty much the same effect. the actual guitar
over the top is nearly the same picking as the intro. if you have any *major*
problems with that, then feel free to write to me and i'll transcribe it)
