replacing them with more note strums.

After this, go back and repeat everything from verse riff 1 back up to this point, and
onto the bridge.

Bridge/breakdown, distorted guitar
NOTE: "X" = scratch. Put fingers over strings and scratch with the pick.

Then go back and repeat verse riff 1, intermission, and leave out the first playthrough
verse riff 2, only playing it 7 times total instead of 8. Sonny sings with no
for the first playthrough.
After that, play the bridge/breakdown section again, and you're done!
