Repeat Section A (second set of lyrics) 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
(I'm fairly certain that it's exactly the same as section A, but it is difficult to hear  
the acoustic guitar over the other instruments and vocals. Please leave a correction if  
you notice that the repeated section has any changes.)
