Next it sounds like they overdubbed a second guitar part which just strums
a C (regular formation, not barred) while the lead guitar continues
playing the above riff. But to play it as a single guitar part just switch
to the C and strum around, maybe dropping the pinky on the third fret of the
D string every once and a while.
Outro:
[C] [G]
|--3-3-3-3--33333333--| |--5-5-5-5--33333333--| |--5-5-5-5--44444444--| play this a bunch of times |--5-5-5-5--55555555--| |--3-3-3-3--55555555--| |-----------33333333--|
then the last phrase switches to
[C] [G] [C] [G] [CGCG]
