Between the chorus and the next verse is a guitar figure backed by the
piano playing in F:
|-----13-----------11----------10---------8|
|------------------------------------------|
|12/14--------10/12--------8/10--------6/8-|
|------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------|
