Intro: The Intro is done by a Trumpet (or another wind instrument),
but if you want to play it in the HArp, play this:
(4) 4 (3b) (2b) (1)
Verse 1:
(1) (1) 2 3 (3bb)release_bend_to(3)
(1) (1) 2 3 (3b)

(1) 2 3
(3bb)unbend_quickly_to(3) 3 (3b) (3bb) 3 2 3
Notes about Verse 1:
If you prefer, Play a simple "(3)" instead of "(3bb)unbend_quickly_to(3)"
You can make that change in any verse in wich it appears.

(7) (6) 6 5 (4) 5
(3) (3bb) 3 2 3
Notes about Verse 3:
To play this verse clean, you'll have to be comfortable with the "Tongue Switching" Technique,
if you are not good with this technique or Tongue Blocking in general,
don´t worry and play it in any way you can, but start slowly and practice it a lot.
Verse 4:
(1) (1) 2 3 (3) (3bb) (3) (3bb) (3) (4)

4 (4) (4b) 4 3 (3b) 3 2 3
(3b)_unbend_quickly_to(3) 3 (3b) (3bb) 3 2 3
Notes about verse 4:
Is a Variation of verse 1, but much more Difficult.

2 (1) 2 3
-1234- -(123)-
Notes:
Again, a Hard Verse, the Song is Getting Harder,
but if you keep tryin to play it, you will learn a very useful riff,
besides you would be improving your speed.
Verse 6:
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) 6 -(45)-
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) (4) (3) (3bb) 3
(3) (3) 6 -(45)- (3bb)release-bend-to(3)
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) 6 (4)
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) (4) (3) (3bb) 3
(4) (4) 5 (5) (4) 5 4 (4)
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) 6 (4)
(3bb)release_bend_to(3) (4) (3) (3bb) 3
4 4 (4) 5 5 (5) 6 6 (6) (6) 6
(7) (6) 6 5 (4) 5
(3) (3bb) 3 2 3
Notes:
You can play a simple "(4)" instead of "-(45)-",
i think it´s probably a very small error from Dennis; hey,
it´s not so easy to play a song and hit all notes correctly,
and for me, the "-45-" sounds better.

4 4 (4) 5 5 (5) 6 6 (6) (6) 6
(slap7) (slap7)
(7) (6) (6)
Notes:
If you prefer, you can play a simple "(7)" instead of a "(slap7)"
Ending:
(4) (4b) (4) 6 5 6
Notes about the Ending:
The 5 wich appears on the ending is actually a 5 OverBlow,
but due the fact it´s a very complicated technique to make (and to explain how to make),
a simple "5" sounds pretty OK
Explanation of Notation:
A number means to blow the Hole indicated by the number
A number between () means to Draw the Hole
"b" after a number means a Semitone Bend in the Hole
"bb" after a number means a Fulltone Bend in the Hole
Numbers between "-" means to play the holes together (it´s called a Chord)
Numbers between "-" and between "()" means a Draw Chord
slap Means to make a Tongue Slapping if you don´t know what is it,
don´t you worry, and just play the note as a single note.
Some Examples
"6" means to blow in hole 6
"(2)" means to draw in hole 2
"(4b) means a Semitone Bend in Hole 4 (draw)
"(3bb)" means a Fulltone Bend in Hole 3 (draw)
"(1234)" means to Blow the holes 1, 2, 3 and 4 at the same time
"-(2345)-" means to Draw Holes 2, 3, 4 and 5 at the same time
"slap6" means to make a Tongue Slapping on Hole 6
"(slap7)" means to make the slapping on hole 7 draw
