During the chorus you can just play notes along with the lyrics thats whats
Phil Lesh (bassist for the dead) does.
This is what I play during the chorus:
G---------------5-6-8-6-5-4------66-6-66-------------------------------- D--7-7-5-7-5-7---------------5=-----------12-13-15-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-- A------------------------------------------------------------------------ E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the very last note of the chorus go back and play the intro riff then
jam on the main line and go into the 2nd verse.
