Then hit random notes on the high 'E' when there's lots of noise. The outro is again lots of random notes high up on the high 'E' string with delay. ----------------------------------------- CHORDS: EADGBE ------ C X32010 F 133211 Em 022000 Am X02210 Fmaj7 X33210 G 320033 D7 XX0212 E7 020100 Fm 133111 Em7* X55430 A X02220 Bb X13331 Am7 X02010 E 022100 C* X99870 A* X77650 Em7 020000 EA D G BE -- - - -- D9 X11111090
