this repeats... except theres some "solo" that uses about 6 notes but I 
didn't even bother with it cause I play something completly different 
during the solo... the dear reganomics victim part is slightly 
different... its the same riff but it just doesn't go through the entire 
verse... its easy to hear what the guitars doing so I'm not gonna tab 
that part out just cause I"m too damn lazy
