There's a fill just after that and before the chorus, but I
can't work it out, so I suggest you just do something involving
some of the same notes as above :P
 
What I like to do:
 
G|----------------|
D|----------------|
A|------5-75------|
E|--578-----8-5-0-|
 
I generally don't like to waffle, but you can hear he jumps up
with the next variation (below), so it's gotta be descending here.
 
 
 
VARIATION (this is the first chorus after the above section)

A|--7777-7-7777-|
E|--------------| 
 
 
VARIATION IN BREAKDOWN:
 
G|--------------------|

A|--7777--7-7-----5---|
E|------------5h7-----| 
 
Lots of slight variations on this bit. I suggest listening and
getting in the groove.
 
 
The most important thing here is timing - I've done my best to illustrate
what to play but because of that second verse you'll probably have to
spend some time getting timing right.
