Chorus:
Basicly just repeat the intro, but keep the ringing low E chord
at the begining till the speed part comes in.
Interlude:
just mess with these chords, you'll hear the changes
e|-0---0(3)--0(4)--0(3)-|B|-0---3-----0(4)--3----|G|-1---2-----*-----2----|D|-2---0-----6-----0----|A|-2---0-----6-----0----|E|-0---2-----4-----2----|
Now the fingerings in brackets are little parts you can hear
Alex mess with, there optionals. (and the 3rd chord isn't right
but it's close)
===================
