(Play all of what Gtr II plays in Verse I. Do not play any of the vibrato parts that are
by Gtr I in Verse I. Only play the riff in between the lyrics as follows (denoted by a *))

“I felt so good like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last tree days the rain was un-stoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine.”

Repeat the Bridge once more (The last note “E” from Gtr II is the first note of Verse III)


[Verse 3]
(Do it the same way as I’ve said in the notes for Verse II)

These are the lyrics used in Verse III:
“I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down, to make some time
There's something good, waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever is mine.”
