Submission Sting's "St. Augustine in Hell"

For anyone who's interested. I'm pretty sure it's correct.

I'm a drummer who is a bit sick of playing drums and I'm mucking around on bass. Always loved this odd time stuff Sting produced and have played it on kit heaps. Thanks for this part, very much appreciated. I printed it off to play around with and found it not as hard as I thought. I do have to question the bars in the chorus though.?? I think you have doubled up there. The third bar also goes to the G in the second half of the bar and back to the C for the last bar of the phrase. I am not confident of my ears,,,,,, not know for my aural pitch skills just my rhythmic ones. The bottom note as I hear it C/Ab/F,G/C and repeat. Please let me know if you think I've got it wrong. Cheers Simon.
