(3:00) As fast as possible. Keep 14 bent then "tremelo pick" 
(v/.fast) the e and B strings release the 14 after a few strums.
Same with the B and G string the "_________" means
keep that string bent and strum both as fast as possible. 
A soft plectrum may help but I find it hard to do this as fast.

I'm not completely sure if I have got the hang of this rock 
interlude There's loads going on and I'm rubbish with chords.
Does anyone know any better what goes in  here?          


Interlude: I Use Power chords they are quicker. 
Although I think the chords might be Em and B7.
Palm Mute and strum occasionally for a percussive effect.
2 Guitars  (I think)
You could probably play all of this on one though.
