it much easier to play, meaner as well.

^ (hold)
This goes right back to the verse (i forget how many times) and then
the whole chorus thing again.
The only difference is during "shimmer sparkle while you can" hold that
chord instead of rest. Next is the kickin' riff during the middle of the
song which goes something like this: ("^" means accent)
(This part may not be 100% accurate, give me comments/corrections if
you got them)

guitar 2 comes in playing the main chorus riff, which gets louder and goes
for quite a while during the last chorus and the "doo do doo"s.
