There's so many places I wanna see

Times running out on me

Main lick x1

For the Chorus I copy the Rhythm guitar (So just the chords) there is some fancier stuff in the second chorus
but it is pretty much drowned out by the rhythm.

Main lick x2 after chorus

Repeat above for second verse

D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Time is running out on me, now the end is near 
Repeat as needed (4x)
On 4th the Main lick comes in in the background

Solo!

Playing the main lick til it fades sounds good, there is again some extra imrpov you can do over it though.
