The 3rd and 4th verse are the same except
the 4th verse has and extra line:
3rd verse
AD
Surrender down comes everything
AD
Breathes no more and falls to sleep
AD
Blind and helpless sick and dead
AA
4th verse
AD
Treasure waits complete and there
AD
With scattered needles everywhere
AD
Thorn at the end of every road
AD
Thorn at the end of every road
AA
Then the song goes into the chorus and the post
chorus ascending part, call it a bridge if you like.
The A holds on twice as long at the end of the ascending
pattern also.
