after the chorus, T plays the open G/octave chord he played in the intro.
after that, he plays descending pick scraps. just scrap w/ yr pick as you move
down the string (towards the nut)...

for the jam, T starts out playing something like this:

when that is completed, T runs his hands up the strings (towards the bridge)
when the song quiets down, T bangs on the back of his guitar for a bit,then goes into

(this is pretty much tremolo picked)

he plays that until the song comes back to the verse, which he introduces by
