At "made for a real world" Earl Slick comes in with a distorted riff, with lots of feedback:

e-------------------|-----------|-------------------|
B-------------------|-----------|-------------------|
G-------------------|-----------|-------------------|
D-------------------|---(x 4)---|-------------------|
A-------------------|-----------|-------------------|
E---3h4-4-4-3h4-4---|-----------|---1---3---1---3---|

The same riff is repeated at "have I stared too long?"

At the end, two measures after the clapping begins, Slick finishes his part with four
strums on a Ab chord, also with lots of feedback.

Leonard then comes in with this riff (with a capo on the 2nd fret):

e---------------2----------------1---|
B-------0---0------------0---0-------|
G-----3---3---3--------3---3---3-----|
D---4----------------3---------------|

E------------------------------------|

He plays around with this riff and creates a new loop from it. As the bands end the
song, he records part of his intro sequence over it, dissolving the loop in distortion and
effects before concluding the song.
