A/C# means that you play an A chord with the bass is C#.
The ^ sign means stretching the string up (listen to the song.)
Also the playing of the 2323 parts is faster and is actually off beat.
The backing is the same as in the verse.
Part 2: Verse

Then the first half of the verse is repeated twice with the exception
that the last chord leading to the next part is an F and not G/B.

In the second half of this section, although the chords remain the same,
the bass goes C,D,E,F - to emphesize that we play the last 4 strings of
the chords only - it makes the difference !
Part 4: Chorus - It's the same as the intro. You can play it like this:

Part 5: The REAl reason why we gathered here... THE GUITAR SOLO!
Well, sit tight, and don't try this at home! (no, try!)
I personally manage somehow to survive the first part of the solo,
but the second one - I can only write it! (even working it out was not
a bed of roses!)
O.K here we go:

Six o'clock, all the closing shops

In tears of grief and strange relief

And sympathy.... all for me.

The day it rained forever
