The solo repeats itself a couple times, then the song goes back to the pre-chorus and
chorus. The solo is also played during the fade out at the end.
The order of the song should be easy to figure out, and that's it. E-mail me with any
questions, comments, corrections, or whatever else...
Take it easy,
Joe
