Intro- Riff 1:
(Clean tone, let notes ring)

Band enters
Verse- Riff 2: ( This is the main riff) (4x)

e|-----------0-------------------0-------------------------0---------------0----------------------|

-There's a lot of improvising in this riff. But this is the basic pattern. Stick with the B and C# 
 chords, and mess with the timing of the notes to get it.


Chorus- Riff 3:

							(1x)
e|-------0-------------------------------------------------|
B|-------0-------------------------------------------------|
G|-------2*------------------------2----/6-----------------|
D|---------------------------------------0-----------------|
A|--0--0---------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------2-------/5*----------------|
         "Anything I can do...        I can do anything"


Then back to Riff 2, for the second verse.
2nd Chorus- Play Riff 3 1x
Play Riff 2 1x

Bridge- Riff 4: (at 2:28)

					(4x)
e|---------0----0-0---------0-----0-0----|
B|---------0----0-0---------0-----0-0----|
G|---------4----4-4---------4-----4-4----|
D|---------2----2-2---------4-----4-4----|
A|---4---4----4-------2---2----2--2------|
E|---------------------------------------|


3rd Chorus- Play Riff 3 1x
Outro- Play Riff 2 2x

There is some improvisation on Riff 2 at the end as well.
Just mess around with the riff to figure it out.

And that's it.
