"Sloop John B"

Yester-day I learned the flute parts for the choruses in "Sloop John B" (or at least a chorus; they're each slightly different).  It sort of invalidates what I said about the resemblance between these flute parts and the guitar parts in "That's Not Me" because there aren't two measures of rests between each phrase.  That's only for the first half; the last two phrases are longer.

I don't own and don't know how to play a flute, so I just used the fake flute setting on my keyboard.
