In the third measure of the chorus,  |-------------------|
this is played in place of the A(5). |-------------------|
The fourth is played the same as the |-------------2-2---|

The second round, starting with "My girl's got eyeballs..." is exactly
the same as the first part, except for the fact that the prechorus is
played four times. After the chorus is played, it kicks into the bridge:
