When Billy starts singing "you wrap your arms around",
play Billy and James both two Intro riffs 3 times and
the fourth time, when Billy has just sung "and out" he
ends this last chord on: 

|--0-----|
|--0-----|
|--2-----|
|--2-----|
|--0-----|
|--------|


Chorus:

Billy + James (Echo)
|--3----0----0-----|
|--3----3----0-----|
|--0----2----2-----| 3 times
|--0----0----2-----| 
|--2---------0-----|
|--3---------------|

"…if it matters to me…"

Billy + James (Echo)
|--3----0----0----0----0-----|
|--3----3----0----3----3-----|
|--0----2----2----0----2-----| 
|--0----0----2----4----0-----| 
|--2---------0----2----------|
|--3--------------0----------|

"…love, love, your love…"


Then, right before the second verse, there´s a little fill:

Billy (Echo)
|--3----0-----|
|--3----0-----|
|--0----2-----|

The second verse is similar to the first one. After it,
there´s the chorus and James starts to solo now.

There´s another fill after the Chorus:
