Once you've played back through the verse, prechorus, and chorus, the guitar solos 
 This is what to play during those:

play |-----------|

     |-----------|
     |--2--------| right when all the instruments do their synchonised end thingy.


Quiet interlude part.

The guy sings:
"Don't tell me you love me."

When the cymbal plays that tiny bit shortly thereafter, I like to play a harmonic at the 
fret on the E string.

Then, "Don't tell me you love me."
