| hold for 8 Then we go into verse 2, pre chorus 2 and then play chorus 2xs. Here is a one of the harmony parts. (I recommend learning the definition of a harmony to figure out second guitar part. This will help you figure out other harmonies in the future). Also, in this example I only show the notes without bending strings. You will have to accent the bends yourself. HARMONY PART

Next, play chorus 2xs. Then play harmony part. Then we have guitar solo 2. (rhythm plays chorus here). And finally, here is the end. Once again, I only show one guitar part. Also, again I show just the notes without the bends. ENDING HARMONY
