I've made a change to the verse, and now it sounds perfect. I've been
trying to figure this out for a while, because the old way never sounded quiet right
to me, and after listening carefully to the song I figured it out. To ckeck if I
was right, I watched the live vid and it verified that I was. Before you start
saying that I'm wrong, like some people like to around here, please listen CAREFULLY
to the song, then watch the vid, and then you'll realize that it's the right way to
play the verse.
Anyway, here's the modification: instead of playing F5 five times, you play
it once and then C5 four times. Same goes for G5: instead of playing it five times,
you play it once and then A5 four times.
Enjoy.

If you still don't think this is right, listen to the verse 5 times again and
then play this. Trust me, I know for sure.
