After 4 times played, the interlude is overdubbed once more.
Then, goes to something like this...

Small Lead Part during break:

-----14--14--14---12---(14---------------)---14-----------|
-----14--14--14------------------------------14-----------|
----------------------------------------------------------|
No idea if this last part of the lead is right but I think it's close.
Outro: (Keep in mind that the Chorus is playing at the same time, so you'll here the
other arpeggios as well.)

Well, there you have it. I think this is pretty accurate. Tuning the B string up to C#
really helps.
Also, if you want the same tone as the song, it's real easy. I use one of those compressor/limiter
pedals and compress the line a little. Send that signal straight into a mixer or
ANYTHING BUT a guitar amp
because it's a direct line he's using.
