The 1. and 2. means that the A power chord gets played first time
through, and the G gets played second time. After the first chorus,
we go back to the intro/verse stuff. After  the second chorus, we
go to the bridge/solo:

----|--------------|-------------|--------------------------
--3-|---5--7-------|-------------|--------------------------
--2-|---5--7--vamp-|--intro vamp-|--------------------------
--0-|---5--7-------|-------------|--------------------------
----|---0--0-------|-------------|--------------------------
----|--------------|-------------|-------------------------- 
The vamp stuff just means play random riffs along the mentioned
motiffs. It's very improv. The solo ends with:
