Ok. At this point you play Fig.5 again, for the second verse (Time: 1:23-1:46).
Then you do Fig.6 again (Time: 1:47-2:11).
At the end of figure 6 you let the last note ring.

wait for emmett to finish the riff and then come in with Fig.8.
Fig.8 (Time: 2:26-2:55): Ok this is the bridge kinda thing. Go with the rhythm guitar.
