SOLO (CHORDS):

A (played ? times) C (third fret A-string; bend and pull-off)

A (played ? times) D

The outro is similar to the intro/chorus. Just try to get the feel

of it. This is an approximation, since the song has two guitars

and has a one-take quality to it. The solo is most likely A

Pentatonic or a variation of it. Very easy to play. Have fun.

P.S. for all the other Hip transcribers, I've seen a Hip guitar tab

book in store. It's very accurate. Don't pay $40 bucks for it,

though; stand in the store and memorize the parts you don't know.
