Re: Bridge (3X) ?

In a song there are verses, choruses, and bridges.  Bridges are usually a part that sound a little different than the rest and give a transition. They often use a different chord progression.  What that's telling you is to play the bridge three times.

Granted B chord amnesty by King of the Mutants (Long live the king).
