PRE 2nc CHORUS: Just before the 
second chorus there is a little 
subtle
background lick just after the words
 'touch me':

          G
        E-330--------------| 
        B----30------------| 
        G------4P2P0-4P2P0-|

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

LAST 2 CHORDS: The last two chords 
of the song are 'A' to 'G'. The 
effect at the end is
achieved by using a Les Paul style 
guitar and turning the top volume, 
for the neck
pickup, off and then whilst holding 
the G flicking the toggle switch 
quickly. It helps
if you stand next to a loud amp 
aswell, because then you get the 
feedback starting to
creep in!!!
