|--------------------------|--------------------------|


The guitars both repeat their parts, and the string section
adds these two measures over the E5 chord
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------|
|--6--7--6--7--6--7--6--7--6--7--6--7--6--7--6--7--|

|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

The second time, guitar 2 plays this instead of the last measure,
and continues into the verse:
|---------------------------------------------------|-------|
|---------------------------------------------------|-------|
|---------------------------------------------------|-------|
|--6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)r6b(7)--|--2/4--|
|---------------------------------------------------|-------|
|---------------------------------------------------|-------|


Verse: (chords played by organ)
D                      A             E
She comes ...
She comes
She comes ...
She comes to me    ..
She brings me home

Chorus:
Guitar 1 plays the same E5 A progression it did in the intro;
The string section plays the same thing it did in the intro;
Guitar 2 plays the same part it played in the intro, except that it
omits that first chord that swells up over the E5 chord, and it
replaces the last measure with:
|--4b(5)r4b(5)r4b(5)r4--|
|-----------------------|
|-----------------------|

|-----------------------|

E5                          A          E5
But I'm not            ... anymore

Verse:

* (w/ Fill 1, played by gtr. 2, first time only)
But I'm not ...

Fill 1

Instead of the last measure of the repeat of the chorus, the song
moves into the bridge:

   E5                         E5maj7
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--|--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--| Both guitars
|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--| play this
|--------------------------|--------------------------| 1 3/4 times
|--------------------------|--------------------------|


   D5                         A
|--------------------------|--0--0------|
|--------------------------|--2--2--5\--|
|--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|--2--2--6\--|
|--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7--|--2--2------|
|--------------------------|------------|
|--------------------------|------------|

The string section plays the high note of the first three chords,
and then plays a little G#-A trill over the A chord


E5            E5maj7
1-2-3-4-5-6-7 a.m.
All alone ...
    D                               A
But I've ...                      before
Spend my ...
Cry about ...
But I ain't ...

Interlude:
After the third measure of the repeat, the song changes to this:
The timing is chaotic, to say the least, so listen carefully for
exactly when these notes are sounded. Guitar 2 plays the part tabbed
out, and guitar 1 just plays the chords indicated.


The strings play an E5 chord, just a high E and B note for the
next 5 measures.
