(every other time, Gabriela plays her crazy, fast, muted thing as a substitute for the very
end part)
(intro Rodrigo)

G |-----/7-6--7-------7----------------------------------------------------------|

(0:32 riff 2 - Rodrigo)
E |----------------------|---1st Ending-----------|---2nd Ending---|
B |----------------------|------------------------|----------------|
G |----------------------|------------------------|----------------|
D |----------------------|------------------------|-4444-4444-44-0-|

E |-7-5h7---0-3/5---7--5-|-7-5h7---0*--------10-5-|-2222-2222-22-0-|
(after that entire part is played once, another lead guitar comes in and plays the same
an octave higher, and
at the 2nd ending the chords are played straight, without rhythmic breaks.
Then after that, play the intro again)
(1:04 both guitars)

Honestly I have no idea why I bother putting the x’s in there, because I have no idea
rhythm is, I just want to let you know its there.
