                               When I'm President 
                               ================== 
 
The intro for this song goes something like this:

                                                I'm much  older now... 
 
 
The A5 is held for four measures while Gary sings, then Nuno plays:

                                                You can  be anything... 
 
 
A5 again held for four measures, then:

I think the chorus is something like:

Anyway, that's the basic theme of the song.
