Normal Pitch

Blowin' the Blues - 4th chorus. The notation says "normal pitch". I'm not sure what this means. If its covered somewhere else, my apologies but the video doesn't mention anything and it sounds just like its "normal" - or is that the point? I just don't get it. Thanks.

Aha!!
Closer examination provides understanding!!!
Thanks David - I guess when I thought I was looking at the notes, I was really looking at the timing and not the pitch. The tabs are still my security blanket!!
It's a notational thing. Before that point somewhere you'll see an 8va... or "Notes play an octave above notated pitch." Your statement says that it's back to normal. This is for players that read the music... it doesn't affect the tablature.
