Thats the main song covered , this repeats a few times and then when
come to the outro section . You can take your slide of now and
change to some rhythm playing and then it's the solo.
oh yes this is where there is some slight phasing , but also it's
switched off for the main body of the solo and gradually builds up
into the end section.

The Guitar Solo
---------------
Now the solo comes in , you guitar should not be totally
screaming for this but should have plenty of gain giving a good impact
the solo is very energetic, i think that you should use only as much
distortion as you like, in the 2nd and 3rd sections notice
how the feel and timing slightly changed , I am only going to cover
the first part.

As you can see it uses the same riff repeating a lot it seems daft
writing it all out like I just did so i'll show you the riff
and how many times it repeats
E-----15--------------15-------------15-------------15-------------15-------B--18----18p15-----18----18p15----18----18p15----18----18p15----18----18p15-G---------------------------------------------------------------------------D---------------------------------------------------------------------------A---------------------------------------------------------------------------E---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is repeated 3 times and on the 4 time play this:
E-----15--------------15--------15-----------------------B--18----18p15-----18----18p15-----18p15----18b20b18p15--G--------------------------------------------------------D--------------------------------------------------------A--------------------------------------------------------E--------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------B--18b20--18b20----18p15-------15-18p15--------15-------G------------------------17b19----------17b19-----------D-------------------------------------------------------A-------------------------------------------------------E-------------------------------------------------------
The next riff which is repeated twice is :
E-------------------------------------------------------------------------B---18p15-------15----18p15-------15----18p15-------15----18p15-------15--G---------17b19-------------17b19-------------17b19-------------17b19-----D-------------------------------------------------------------------------A-------------------------------------------------------------------------E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
and this follows:
E------------------------------------------------------------------B-18p15-------15---18p15-------15---18p15-------15-----------------G-------17b19------------17b19------------17b19------15b16---------D----------------------------------------------------------17p15---A------------------------------------------------------------------E------------------------------------------------------------------
