Okay, give me a break, I can't tab this solo! Some day, I'll put
it up, probably, but it is like a minute and a half of NOISE, so
for right now, improvise during this section. Here are the
chords: 4 measures of E
2 measures of A
2 measures of E
1 measure of G
1 measure of B7
1 measure of E then A
1 measure of E/B then B7
REPEAT until the end of the B7
measure, and play this:
