Basically two guitars: acoustic and electric (lead). I won't tab

Repeat from last bar of the intro (that chord is played three times now, and
possibly without the highest e string fretted).
Chords remain the same, but the lead guitar is slightly different. Sounds like
a third guitar enters on the left speaker, plus some slide guitar and strings.
I didn't tab the slide guitar and strings, but I tabbed some of the new licks.
(2) An SOS from an outpost there on a common air

There is enough room for some improv. Lead guitar generally follows the chords
but plays them higher up the neck and adds some hammer-ons, etc.
