THEN BASICALLY JUST REPEAT ALL OF THIS. YOU CAN HEAR WHERE IT COMES IN. BUT IN THE CHORUS PLAY THE LITTLE 10 10 9 9 RIFF TWICE. FIRST WITHOUT THE ENDING SLIDE; SO HANG ON THE 5. THEN, PLAY IT IN FULL AND CONTINUE ON WITH THE CHORUS AS NORMAL. BREAKDOWN

It gets a tad confusing from here as I switch to rhythm for a change up, so just keep at it.
