For the first chorus, this is only played twice. On the repeat, play the measure
below. For all of the other choruses, the above tab is played three times, with the
measure below played on the fourth:

G--3----5----7--|
D--3----5----7--|

Solo 3 Rhythm/Double Time Outro:
D----------|
B--5----0--|
G--5----0--|
D--5----0--|
G--5----0--|

There's too much going on on the album and live for me to really tell what's going on
the double time outro, but it seems as if Rich is just alternating between C and G.
