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!

G|6-8-8b9-----6b8-----4 (X3)

E|
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.
