*Play Main Melody 2 times for intro (no lyrics)
*Then play Main Melody with Lyrics:
*Play Fill I and Ending I with lyric:
Misery so hollow
*Again play Main Melody 2 times no lyrics and then w/lyrics:
Hey you...
*Play Fill I, but replace Ending I with a D chord: -2-
-3-
(with the lyric:) -2-
And it hurts... ---

*There's a short pause and then the song alternates between an A chord and
D chord till the final outro. You'll have to listen to the song for the
rhythm--sorry!! There are hammer-ons for both chords as follows:
(A) (D)
