Note:- There are little "twiddly bits" between the chords, i'll put
those at the end.

Memories fire, the rhythms fall slow

end it with a nice D chord or this (which i think sounds better)

E--|--0--|--
B--|-10--|--
G--|--9--|--
D--|--0--|--
A--|--0--|--
D--|--x--|--

Return to verse again and run right thru (missing out fun bit one, just use 2.
The last time, the fun bit is even stronger with more distortion.
