Pete's part jumps between following the same melody as the vocal section with little  
fills in between and 
doing some arpeggios during the Chorus.  Any bends in here you'll have to figure out on  
your own, and not 
everything is perfect, so don't take this as gospel.  Keep in mind that some live  
versions are different 
from others, so if this doesn't sound identical don't be afraid to play around!

Chorus: 

The precise picking pattern of these chords still seems to allude me, but these will  
give you an idea 
of where to go 

e|---9-----------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|------7----------------9--------------------4------------------5------5----| 
G|9---------9----------------8--------------------2--------------------------| 
D|--------------------9----------9--------4-----------4------6------6--------| 
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

e|---9-------------------------------------------------------0---------------| 
B|------7----------------9--------------------4--------------5---------------| 
G|9---------9----------------8--------------------2----------4---------------| 
D|--------------------9----------9--------4-----------4------6---------------| 
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

The first time through the Chorus, play the top bar once and the bottom bar once.  The  
second time through 
play the top bar 3 times and the bottom one once, leading into the solo.  The solo  
rhythm goes back to the 
verse, you're on your own with the solo.
