Comments

The verse is almost right, though the line is confusing because the notes are crotchets. The first bar is 8 8 6 6, but the second bar is 5 5 4 3 - first time round. Then the verse is correct. The first bar of the bridge is also crotchets 3 3 7 7. The second bar has two crotchets 8 8, which the double to quavers.
Sorry, but the chorus is completely wrong. It starts on an F crotchet(8 as tabbed)and then doubles to D F Bb Bb C D, follwed by F D F Bb Bb (dotted crotchet I think). It repeats the first two bars, but in place of the dotted crotchet Bb, climbs C Db D to start the second half D G Ab A (crotchet) C Db.
