To Bridge

Here's an addition sent in by MetGuitar@aol.com

The first one is the part where Kirk plays the high part, right before they play
the intro riff to end the song.

e---------------------       (8 times)
B----19p16p0----------       

e--------------------       (8 times)
B----20p17p0---------

(you just those repeat those twice, the 20p17p0 is only 4 times the second 
time)

* When he plays it live, after those first parts he plays this:

e----------------19p16p0---    (4 times)
B---19p16p0----------------

e----------------20p17p0----     (2 times)
B---20p17p0-----------------
