LINK ([Middle 8] ==> last [Verse])

This part may be played using just a G6 throughout, but the organ plays 
some interesting notes in the higher register. So if you want that, I’d
suggest the following. If you don’t, just leave it out.


            
  1 + 2 + 3 + 

        
4 +  1 + 2 + 3

              
 + 4 +  1 + 2
