palm mute first time only on all four, second time only on first three

Go back to beginning, play intro rhythm x2 with the lead part on high d# string again.
do the verse again, and the chorus (both halves)

Then this is the outro I spose. Play the normal intro part with the lead on the high d#, (x2)
then come to this. play normal rhythm on guitar 1, and on guitar two play this

d#---------------------------------------------|
a#---------------------------------------------|
f#-2-2-4-4-6-6-7-7-6-6-6-6-7-7-6-6-4-2-2-2-----|
c#---------------------------------------------|
g#---------------------------------------------|
d#---------------------------------------------|

then play the first lead again once (like usual, with normal rhythm) and then hold the last note after for a fadeout. song done.
