tom plays this little riff twice before Mark comes in     

Now bust into this little riff that Mark plays behind the guitar.  Listen carefully, 
its there.  Play it twice.
G-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-7--9--7--6--

G--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-/-7--5-4----
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--------------------------------
E-----------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5------------------------------------------------
The little /7 is one of those little flourishes Mark used to do.

G--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-/-7--5-4---
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-/------------------------------
E-----------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5------------------------------------------------

  (I Talk to you every now and then)
G-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11--7-7-7-7-7-7-7
D--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-9--9-9--9--9--9---9--9---5-5-5-5-5-5-5
A--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just play that until Tom sings "Just you wait and see."  Thats when you go on to this riff 
4 times before going back to main riff. I guess it would be called the chorus.
G----------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------


After playing the verse for a while, go to the guitar solo and play this:

G------------------------------------------  
D---------------------------/-5-5-5-5-5-5-
A-5-----2-----5-----2-2-2-2----------------
E----5-----3-----5-------------------------

And then immediately play this several times:
G--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---------------
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--------------------------------
E-----------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------------------------------------------------
 
And then this several times:
G----------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------/-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-/7
A-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------------------------------
