chorus 2: guitar 1 (*\= scrape your pick down strings starting from around
the farthest pickup on your guitar from you and slide down to about the
10th fret; that’s about how fast you need to slide. You’ll only get the
sound when you have your guitar plugged into an amp with distortion on.
It’s kind of hard to describe, listen to the song and maybe you’ll figure
it out.)
