Guitar 2 plays this figure during the "chorus":

Now, over the A B G# chords in the last verse, the lead guitar
plays a screaming figure based on this:
-|-----------14----
-|--14b(16)--------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
And over the B & E chords the final time around, the lead guitar
is rapidly picking in rhythm with the words:
-|--9--------------
-|--12b(14)--------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
-|-----------------
.. up until the climactic end.

[me again!]
well, no-one seems to have done this, so I'll give it a shot... it's pretty
hard to describe exactly what's going on with the rhythm here... and it's also
hard to play along with (if I remember correctly, the distorted (single)
version is tuned to somewhere between 2 and 3 half-steps up (yeah, it's just
"randomly somewhere in between" - try it!), and I think the acoustic
version on the White Album is maybe 1 or 2 half-steps up... at any rate,
I'll tab it in A because it's easiest (only possible ?) to play that way.
(also, I really never figured out the lead part... if someone would
care to chip in [or maybe I'll get around to it someday])
Intro is something like
(keep sliding up to this A chord for awhile)
E------ .... ------
B--\9-- .... --12^-
G--\10= .... ------
my best approximation of how the rhythm goes is something like this... you'll
have to play around hitting those notes on the 4th fret and then letting the
whole chord ring out:
A (ring) D A (ring)
