 note: rhythm on this tab is nonexistent and the lines of
 G3 do not correspond to the rhythm of G1&2's tab.  Listen
 to the recording as a guide...  bm.

There's this addition to *1 after G3's last E and
just before the lyrics:

Well, there's Whir for you.  I still can't figure out the  
E's and other chords under the chorus (Whir yourself around...
part)  If you know it please E-mail me.  Enjoy it.  Hope
it's not too confusing (I didn't wanna tab out repetitive
lines) and it helps out.  Please send comments to
