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.
