GUITAR 1:

Guitar 1 stops playing the Chorus, and starts with a lot

of tremolo picking here. I've tried to tab it approximate to John's improvising, although I know it's not exact. 4:52

I hope it's close enough It may be hard to understand with more than 1 guitar If so, just stick to Guitar 1 and it'll sound ok
