Back into chorus but without resting between positions x2

Final chorus pt2:
e|---------15-----------------13-----------------12-----------------10----------------------|    |----------|
B|-----15----15--15-------13----13--13--------13----13--13-------12----12-------------------|    |----------|
G|16-16--16----16----14-14--14----14-----12-12--12----12----12-12--12-----12-12-10-10h12p9--| x2 |--9h10p7--|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|    |----------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|    |----------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|    |----------|

Now mess around with these positions before the outro with fast strumming
e|------------|
B|------------|
G|-7-6-8-11---|
D|-x-x-x-x----|
A|-5-4-6-9----|
D|------------|

Outro part 1:
(Play it LOUD ;))

A|-12-0-3-0-4-5-0-6-0-7-8-0-9-0-10-11--|
D|-12-0-3-0-4-5-0-6-0-7-8-0-9-0-10-11--|

Then go back to messing with those positions with the fast strumming and finish on

e|---------------------|
B|------3------3-------|
G|------5b7----5b7-----|
D|-0--------0------0---|
A|-0--------0------0---|
