Here another guitar comes in, but it sort of takes over as the main guitar so we'll call it Guitar 1.

You'll have to figure out the rhythm of it. That last chord is usually just played
before going back to (799800). It's just a variation of E, but it's an easy little fill to
Paul probably does some other stuff, but the chords I've written are the basis of the chorus.

With those first 3 chords, you've sort of got to pick them out a bit. I haven't written
out because I don't know it exactly, just have a listen and try to understand Paul's
Play what I've written above 3 times, and on the 4th time, just play the first 2 chords.
Guitar 2
========
This guitar part needs an overdrive/distortion of some description and you've got to be
good at bending to make it sound right...I can't!

On the 4th time, play it the same, but leave out that B note at the end.
CHORUS/OUTRO
============
The rest of the song is just the chorus being repeated. Guitar 2 plays a very simple
over the top, which is written below. There is also a third guitar which picks out
of the chorus chords. I haven't worked it out because it is hard to hear, and your own
improvisation will most likely do. The song ends quietly on (799700).
Guitar 2
========
Here is that really simple riff. Keep the guitar sound used for Guitar 2 in the bridge.
