Helter skelter Yeah
So much for verses and choruses. The rest are pretty much the same,
except that the rest of the verses hit the G chord a little sooner
(at the beginning of the third line of the verse).
Here's the guitar solo in the middle:
E A E
-|----------------------7--7--15b(17)--15b(17)--b(17)15-------------|
-|----------------------0--0----------------------------------------|
-|----------------------9--9----------------------------------------|

-|------------------------------------------------------------------|
-|------------------------------------------------------------------|
'Cos here she comes

-|------------------b(14)12---------------b(14)12b(14)12-----------12-------|
-|---------------------------14----------------------------------------14~--|
-|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Later, there's a neat riff in one of the last verses. I think it
comes right after "will you won't you want me to make you" or something
like that. This is a cool riff with that looonnnng slide.
-|--12--15b(17)--b(17)15--12------12----------------------------------------|
-|----------------------------15------15\10-----10b(12)--b(12)10--8---------|
-|-------------------------------------------9-----------------------7--9---|
-|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

As the song fades into the first ending, there are some nice bend releases,
while the lyrics repeat "coming down fast":
-|--b(17)15------------------------------------------------------------|
-|-----------b(17)15---------------------------------------------------|
-|--------------------b(16)14------------------------------------------|
-|-----------------------------b(14)12---------------------------------|
