Back to Chorus w/ midchorus breakdown num 1,2
And then a buncha back and forth between those breakdowns. They are strange order so you
can figure them out much easier in your head then i can explain in formal writing. there are
probably some errors, so all the bass gods out there fix em for me, im lazy.
