While all that is going on, Guitar II plays a melody with a PAM  MUTE.

E|--------------------------------------------|                     

Loose the mute here: (like a ladie's dress...)
E|--0--0-----|                                            
B|--2--2-----|                                            
G|--2--2-----| Repeat number of times you think is right.

A|--0--0-----|                                            
E|--0--0-----|                                            

A major chord strum, then back to the muted melody.
