[Intro/Verse/Chorus] repeat 10x/just until the second "99 nights means..." part ends. The 5/6 slide sounds
really weird if you don't time it correctly; you play the 5 almost as long as you normally would, but in the
last moment before switching to the 4, you slide up to the 6.

[Post-Chorus] repeat 2x, then the first riff kicks in, then again this post-chorus/middle-part.

[Bridge] repeat 6x, add chorus and a flanger, there are some extra notes, I couldnt figure out, but you're
fine if you play those chords and add some effects and maybe a little bit of whammy baring. (If this sounds
kinda familiar, itmight be because Zach probably took a ot of inspiration from Josh's I'm With You (RHCP)
bridges on that part.) After the bridge you strike a simple e minor 6x, before paying a g major twice while he
sings this "Stop it, right f-ing now!", then you just play the verse riff again and let it fade out.
