Well the 9/4 parts gave me a bit of a headace, so I chose to put a 5/4
measure there and keep the rest 4/4's. The accents in there come mostly
at the 2nd half of each 1/4. (As one-AND-two-AND...)

What to play on Am - riff_1: Basically it's just A5/Am through, but I noticed
that it's easier to keep track of where you are, if you count the riffs
especially, when you are singing. :)
