Instrumental

Play the intro riff again. There's a harmonic pumping out behind it
this time. This can be found by lightly touching the 3rd (G) string
directly above the 5th fret - don't press down, but play the string
and it should ring. It may need a bit of distortion to bring it out.

Then the guitar solo starts. I think it's played with a slide, but
if you don't have one or an empty pint-glass to hand, it sounds
alright by just fretting the notes with your fingers and add plenty
of vibrato.

Over the last 3 bars of the solo a louder, more prominent overdub
is played. It goes a little something like this:

What do you care about? She says, 'this and that,'
A Dsus2/A A
What do I mean to you? I'll show you if you want the truth.
F#m E D
I threw it all away, I don't know where I put it,
D C5
But I miss it just the same. (Repeat Fill Ad Lib)

Outro

A weird chord starts playing, I think it's C#7b5 but you play it
like this:

E|--7--| This is played a few times with that
B|--8--| Fret five harmonic repeating.
G|--6--| Finally the original intro riff comes
D|-----| back in, plus ad lib vocals and
A|-----| the song fades out.
E|-----|
