Listen very closely to the song to hear when to strum. I'm not completely sure about this part, but it sounds pretty good.

For this part, you are going to have to listen to the song for the correct timing. Also, I don't know if there is a symbol for feedback, so I guess I'll just use the word feedback.

Interlude: (2:12-2:38) (Play One Time - Clean)

Okay, so this might just be part of the final chorus, but I feel like calling it the pre-chorus. I don't know why, but that's just the way I see it.

With the outro, play it two times at normal volume and then start fading the sound. I believe that the riff is played five times, but you can only hear half of the fifth time through because all sound is pretty much gone.

Outro: (3:18-3:53) (Play Five Times - Distorted) (Begin Fading Third Time Through)

Finished! This is a really cool song, and I really enjoy playing it. Hopefully this has helped you if someone is actually reading this little ending note. If you have any corrections, comments, or tab requests, send me an e-mail at tylerwalters32@yahoo.com.
