----------------------------Comments (David Rowe)----------------------------------
Personally, I play it solo on accoustic, so I like to play this last
part four times and let the last G ring.

In some parts of the song there are actually two guitars played at a
time, but when I saw them live, I believe that he played this with just
an accoustic guitar with the bass picking up most of the slack by the
lack of distortion. Here's where you guys use your own noggins to
distort accordingly.

Also, during the fill, the guitar is electric playing with distortion,
so he lets it ring after strumming once. Accoustically, I play this
with the same pattern as the chorus.
