Repeat main riff one more time (exactly the same as the first time), and then you're to the outro !!!
 
[Outro]
 
The outro is basically just 3 minutes of improv and feedback , I've noticed that at some points the guitar is doubling the
bass, which goes something like this:
 
e|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
A|---------0---0-----------0---0---|---------0---0-----------0-------|
E|-2---2-----------2---2-----------|-2---2-----------2---2-------0---|
 
Other than that, you can basically just play whatever you want
 
************************************
 
Additional notes:
 
For the rhythm parts you can have some fun , Ive seen some live performances where Jimmy plays the main riff something like
this (not exactly sure how he played it):
 
e|-4-------------------2-----------|-4-------2---0-------------------|
B|-2~~-----------------2~~---------|-3~~-----3---3~~-----------------|
G|-2~~-----------------2~~---------|-2~~-----2---2~~--------------2-2|
D|-2~~-----------------2~~---------|-0~~-----0---0~~--------------4-4|
A|-0~~-----------------0~~---------|------------------------------4-4|
E|---------------------------------|------------------------------0-0|
 
e|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
G|-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---|-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---|
D|-4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---|-4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---|
A|-4---4---0---0---4---4---0---0---|-4---4---0---0---4---4---0---0---|
E|-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---|-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---0---|
 
Throughout some parts of the song there's some strumming (or other sound effect) that sounds like this:
 
e|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
B|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
G|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
