Haven't quite figure out the part between this Chorus and the Verse yet.
Working on it.
But, after that riff it continues into this:
Verse 2:
E MajorE|----------------------||
BB|----------------------||
G+G|----------------------||
D MajorD|-14~--13~--14~--14~---|| 2X
A augmentedA|----------------------||
E MajorE|----------------------||
E MajorE|--------------------------------||
BB|--------------------------------||
G+G|-------------9\----8------------||
D MajorD|-7\----7\----9\----9----10--9---||
A augmentedA|-7\----7\----7\----6-----x--x---||
E MajorE|-5\----5\----------------8--7---||
E MajorE|----------------------------||
BB|----------------------------||
G+G|-------------9\----8----8---||
D MajorD|-7\----7\----9\----9----x---||
A augmentedA|-7\----7\----7\----6----6---||
E MajorE|-5\----5\-------------------||
Chorus Again
Then
E MajorE|----------------||
BB|----------------||
G+G|-----------1~---||
D MajorD|-3---------2~---|| After this it's a lot of static and effects
A augmentedA|-3---------2~---|| leading into next part.
E MajorE|-1---------0~---||
E MajorE|------------------------------------------------------------------------||
BB|------------------------------------------------------------------------||
G+G|-9---9---9---9---9---9---11---11---8---8---8---8---9---11---11---11-----||
D MajorD|---9---9---9---9---9---9----9----9---9---9---9---9---9----9----9----9---||

D MajorD|---9---9---9---9----9----9----9----9---9---9---9---9----9----9----9----9-||
A augmentedA|-------------------------------------------------------------------------||
E MajorE|-------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Then pretty much the same as above except turn them into pairs:
E MajorE|-------------------||
BB|-------------------||
G+G|-8---9---11---12---|| You figure out order and rhythm.
D MajorD|-9---9----9----9---|| It's not very hard to do.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Not quite sure on next riff yet.
Back to Chorus Riff Again
