								   end of verse 
 
In measure 9 of first verse, there's a slight nuance:  
 
| 1  &  2  &  3  &  4  & | 
==========================

|----4--4-----4--4--4--3-| 
|----5--5-----5--5--5--5-| 
|------------------------| 
|------------------------| 
 
Return to INTRO for second time, then VERSE for second time, however, there 
is a slight nuance of the second verse, measure 5 which is the same as 
the above nuance.  Also, measure 8 of the second verse varies slightly: 
 
| 1  &  2  &  3  &  4  & | 
==========================

Measure 17 of the second verse changes:

							end of second verse 
 
Return to INTRO for third time, however measures 5 thru 9 change:  
 
| 1  &  2  &  3  &  4  & | 1  &  2  &  3  &  4  & | 1  &  2  &  3  &  4  & |

|-X-----X--------------4/| 5--5--5-----5--5--5/ 6| 
|------------------------|------------------------| 
|------------------------|------------------------| 
 
Then the 3rd verse continues, however, the first 4 measures of the verse that 
are repeated 3 times in the 1st and 2nd verses, are repeated 4 times in the 
3rd verse.  
 
The 24th measure of the 3rd verse starts VERSE PRIME: 
 
VERSE PRIME:

|-5-----5----5-5--------5-|----5--5-----5---5-5-5-5-5-5- || 
 
Repeat the last 4 measures 3 more times, however on the  
last repeat, substitute the following for the last measure: 
 
| 1  & a 2  &  3  &  4  & | 
=========================== 
|----5-5-5--0--5--0--7/ 8| 
|----3-3-3--3--3--3--6/ 7|  Then the 4th verse is played, same as the 1st 
|--------------------4/ 5|  verse, except the first 4 measures are played  
|--------------------5/ 6|  4 times instead of 3 times as in the 1st verse. 
|-------------------------| 
|-------------------------| 
 
Note about the 4th verse:  the last 2 measures are left off of the 4th 
verse and it goes into the coda: 
 
| 1  &  2  &  3 e & a 4  & | 1  &  2  & a 3  &  4  &  |
