(Some guitar solo that I can't figure out with some pinch artificial harmonics.) 
 
(with verse guitar part): 
 
I am one as you are three 
Try to find messiah in your trinity 
Your city to burn 
Your city to burn 
Try to look for something in your city to burn

(verse) 
Time is right for a guiding light 
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life 
Your city to burn 
Your city to burn 
Try to look for something in your city to burn 
 
You'll burn (unison guitars, play twice)

(Back into more of Billy soloing and James playing his rhythm part with D'arcy. 
  This goes on for about 8 bars or so) 
 
Basically the "See you... blah blah" part again with Billy playing some sort of 
 F#7 chord over it... either: 
 
-----    --11-or-9-- 
-----    --10-- 
--9--    --11-- 
-11-- or ------ which isn't really an F#7, but you get the idea. 
--9--    ------ 
-----    ------ 
 
End on the F# chord hits.
