Angus and Julia Stone do a lot of alternative intros at their live performances.
This is an alternative intro to Mango Tree performed at a show in Sydney. Learned
from ear so hopefully it's correct to those who have heard it. For those who
haven't and need help with timing, it's available on iTunes.
For Jake Murphy...
Tuning: Standard, half a step down.

Then the original Mango Tree begins...
During the intro, Julia plays the trumpet which I have transcribed. It begins
right at the end of the second repetition of the main part. To understand the
timing, you'll definitely need to listen to the song.
