For the guitar note I will put it in brackets next to the keyboard note. I
will put the string and fret number.
So A2 G14 means the piano is the A key in section 2 and the note
for the guitar would be played on the G string on the
14th fret.
Here is the main bass riff played over and over throughout the song.

I've organized the song by numbering it, each number represents every time
the main riff is played. Any note under that number shows where and when
Jonny plays the martenot.
