Play Riff 5 x2 (w/ delay) Note: There is an overdubbed guitar here playing a high harmony to Riff 5 that I'm not going to tab since it's the same thing except an octave higher. Play Riff 2 "I wanna go higher!" Guitar break (just organ, bass, and drums here for a little bit) Play Riff 4 x2 "Higher, of a place I only imagined..." Play Riff 2 Enjoy!
