NOTE: I don't really think there's any guitars during the Interlude but i think those are the
chords anyway...the solo's might be a little off as someone was distracting me while i was doing
them..but i think they're pretty close to what it is...the verses are all the same feel free to
improvise on the chords...good luck.
