[that's my arrangement of how it would go chord-wise, what's really being
played during the bridge is tabbed below (strumming not shown?just follow
the progression above for guidance)]

G-4---4---4---3-|
D-4---4---4---4-|
A-2---x---x---4-|
E-----5---4---2-|
      ^   ^
    use your thumb on the E string for these two


**This is played throughout the background of the bridge, and is most noticeable
during the 'shooting stars line. To get the riff going throughout the bridge with one
guitar just keep adding alternations between the 4th and 5th fret on B (as shown
below) to the chords used in the transcribed version of the bridge above.
