|----------|----------|-9--9-7-------7-|------9-7---7-9-| 
|----------|----------|--------9-7-9---|----------9-----| 
 
Play that last group of measures 2 more times then play this: 
 
|----------------||--------------------||------------------|  
|----------------||--------------------||------------------|  
|----------------||o------------------o||------------------|  
|----------------||o-7--7-------------o||-7--7-------------|

|--------9-7-9---||-----------9-7-9----||----------9-7-9---|  
 
Then play the second verse the same as the first and then play the above 
part again. 
 
Chorus:

||o----------------|--------o||--------------| 
||o-7--7-----------|-7-----o||--7--9--2--9--|

The part played under the solo is the Verse Intro and the Outro Chorus 
consists of the same bends that are in the Intro. The next two verses are 
the exact same as the first two except the last verse is played an octave 
higher. And you end on this: 
 
|----------------|-----------| 
|----------------|-----------| 
|----------------|-----------| 
|-7--7-----------|-7--------| 
|------9-7---7-9-|-----------| 
|----------9-----|-----------|
