At this point there is a change.  Trey hits a very loud Em  (or E5)  like this


First Part

E-----X-----------------
B-----X-----------------
G-----X-----------------(7 slide to 9)
D-----2-----------------(7 slide to 9)
A-----2-----------------
E-----0-----------------

I do the slide with my  right hand while I hold the Em with my left.  I do 
this 6 times.

Then back to the main theme for a while.  Do some loops if you've got 'em.

THen...

Horse Chord!!

At the end of this segment Trey plays a staccato  A chord way up on the neck. 
I am not sure if he does this with a delay loop, or if he is really hitting 
each stroke - it's very weird!

E-----17
B-----X
G-----14
D-----X
A-----12
E--------

then back to the main theme a few times...

  (A-D/F#) Now it gets fun. Alternate between these two chords:


A D/F#
  E|--0----0--|
  B|--2----3--|
  G|--2----2--|
  D|--2----4--|
  A|--0----0--|
  E|----------|


This is where the jam starts. You can move these chords up an octave,
  and experiment on the neck. Trey uses a backwards-guitar effect here.
  This is a great jam, so enjoy it!
