On repeat of chorus, one guitar plays the chords agian, the other
repeats fill 1.
>From here, the song goes into a two guitar harmony, followed by
another harmony part, then a chordal bridge over..."I've got to
keep running..." then the solo, which has some overdubbed harmonies
towards the end. Then comes the verse, prechorus and chorus, then the
chorus again, then the intro riff played faster. Then the final harmony:
