SOLO + JAZZY PART (Both guitars)

Before I start, I don't think this is all right. The notes I use are right

but they might not be in the right order if get that. It's easier than it

sounds to figure out.

This is the beginning of the jazzy part in the middle of the song.

One guitar plays the high 13, the other one plays this little solo on the

high E string

that follows the same basic scale as the one on the B string that you just

read.

Now for my favourite part in the song...

|--/-/-12-~-\-\--|
|----------------|
|----------------|

..you should be able to figure out when to play that pretty easily.

Then the jazzy part kicks in and ends with the guitars going...

VERSE 3

When one guitar holds that 6, the other start palm muting this.

Then just repeat till the end. Enjoy.
