Josh plays some interesting notes on keyboard which repeats
during the entire chorus. It reminds me of an alarm going off.

SOLO: Keyboard arranged for guitar. There is excellent note
selection in this solo which fits perfectly with the song.
Sounds as if Josh is using a clarinet sound on keyboard.
