Both guitars then play the E5 (held for half a measure), followed by
another pinch harmonic, into the second verse and chorus as before.

(or the ending bit may be E5 G5 F#5 E5 C5 B5 - I'll check this
later)

Then another variation (after repeating the above sections) of the
intro, all tremolo picked:  (this is incorrect, and I'll fix
this later, too)

Then they play the intro again, as well the solo, and then the
verse, but then play this rhythm fill to lead into the chorus (outro)
