Here's the rest of the lyrics:
Taste the hard rock candy
Guaranteed to melt in your mouth
Jump back now Jim Dandy
East west north and south
Catch the rush all over
Take a chance if you dare
Ain't got time for posers
Look out Dick you better beware
Before the chorus, play the interlude bit twice. The second time should
be really fast. The chords at the end of the solo are:
E5 D5 E5 D5 A5
The outro chords are:
B5 A5 B5 A5 E5
And the little lead part that gets repeated over and over at the end is:
