CHORUS 2 - Same as Chorus 1, except chord progression is 
played through one extra time, and then a different ending:
  instead of going to the Bm at the end, go up to D, as shown.
 I will show the end of the chorus riff so you know how it goes

Guitar 1 - Lead Guitar 
(3:54) starts fading in to build up to the solo, it sounds
 like the Edge is just doing sixteenth note rakes like he 
is famous for doing, though if you want you can do the
 B octave again.
