Essentially copying the bass line in highlight.
Do the verses with this as the guitar line.
Use a flanger if you have it; Chad Taylor does during this part.
I talk of freedom
You talk of the flag
I talk of revolution
You'd much rather brag
And as the decibels of this disenchanting discourse
continue to dampen the day
The coin flips again and again and again
as our sanity walks away
All this discussion
though politically correct
is dead beyond destruction
though it leaves me quite erect.
And as the final sunset rolls behind the Earth
and the clock is finally dead
I'll look at you, you'll look at me, and we'll cry alot
but this will be what we said
This will be what we said

Don't alternate strum the end chord fill there ----^ just play it all
"downwards" and it will ring properly.

^- Beat * use alternate sweep strumming for the right sound on this part *
Look where all this talking got us, baby.
(repeat four times using riff 2)
(then repeat riff 2 4 times without the verse.)
