Ok, a couple things:
1) YOU figure out how many times to repeat everything
2) These are the MAIN parts of the song. Tom had to be a jerk and overdub a ton of shit 
towards the end, and I'm not even gonna delve into that. Pretty much, what you see above 
is what you need to play the song live. 
3) If anyone has some corrections (and I'm sure you guys do), email me.
