*) I just wrote the chords in the verse part. These chords are actually strummed
by the first guitarist, while the other guitarist plays single notes and/or
arpeggios of these chords. This also goes for the other parts below.
*) Don't pay much attention to the measure description, it was done
loosely...

Only 6 bars of this chorus are played, followed by:

*) For the bridge i just gave single notes, but i think multiple notes of the chords are
played together.
*) Again, measure description was done loosely.

*) Of course not sure about the fast descending line.
*) After the solo the chorus again. After the chorus Fripp continues with
his guitar line while Adrian makes some noise. Then Adrian plays
the guitar synth intro, but only 7 of the 8 bars, with Fripp still playing
his line.
*) After the 7 bars of the intro the song ends with some guitar synth chords
from Adrian and some last notes by Fripp.
