Listen to the song for arrangement plus embellishments (i.e. the verse and 
chorus riffs
are played with slight variations each time around).  I have endeavoured to 
indicate
the on-beat in some of the horn unison section, but I'm pretty sure these 
aren't quite
correct. I'm not very good at counting to four!
Enjoy!
(and if loads of covers bands start playing this around North London - you 
owe me a pint!)
