The 2nd part of the song is pretty much the same as the first just with the different

I'm on a big jet plane
With my baby's crime in my veins
I'll be the first to toast,  awh
To my rowdy soul

And here we are the rolling people
Don't ask why
We don't know
So come alive we're the rolling people
Don't ask why
We just don't know now,   yeah

  MID-SECTION

B
Don't even know which way I'm going to

B
The lights are on and I am feeling blue

I hope you know which way I'm gonna die

I thank you for my life, i say goodnight, goodbye

And then finally play the chorus one last time, with the lyrics from the 1st chorus.

             SOLO

his works, didn't wanna steal his thunder.
