================================================================
for electric rhythm part in the bridge, I get this:
the electric guitar is tuned down 1/2 step to Eb
Starting with that lick before the bridge, which would now be
< = stretch up
> = release back down
+ = hammer-on
e|-------------------------------------------| B|--14<--16>--14>--16>--14>------------------| G|-----------------------------11------------| D|-------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------|

A regular verse at that tuning would be:

You look like a perfect fit etc.
That would be an arrangement to play electric guitar, tuned down 1/2 step,
all the way thru, just playing quietly until the bridge
