BRIDGE THINGY

There are just these four chords, figure out the rhythm yourself.  Guitar 2 is doing something in the 

background, but I can't hear it too well.  Just improvise, using these keys as guidelines:
  F     Bb    F     C
e|-     -     -     -     |
B|-     -     -     -     |
G|-     -     -     -     |
D|7     8     3     2     |
A|8     8     3     3     |
E|7     8     3     2     |
