*NOTE* This guitar changes what it plays a bit during the final bars of the
verse. It sounds mostly like the same 2 notes, but in a little bit of a
random pattern (oxymoron?).

B|--------------------------|
G|--------------------------| play 6 times
D|-9b-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-9--|
A|--*-----------------------|
E|--------------------------|

* - This is a very slight, barely-even-there bend.


then (3:40):

B|-----------------------------|

E|----------------------------|
B|----------------------------|
G|----------------------------|
D|-9-9-9-9b--9-9-9-9-9-9-9b*--|
A|----------------------------|
E|----------------------------|

* - At this point, begin playing same note and bending gradually higher.
After a while of this happening, another overdubbed guitar with "bubbly"
phaser type effects enters, playing basically the same thing.
