Lotsa solo stuff. Damned fast, but not hard. Usual pentatonic
minor soloing.
People, this is the end of the solo. I think it's the kewlest sounding
part, so thats all I bothered to figure out. Listen to the CD,
and this is exactly how it sounds. I'd say this is the last 30 seconds
of the solo. Right when James is going into the routine chorus
progression.

If you're like me, and don't have 24 frets on your guitar, then
you'll have
an awful lot of hard bending to do from the 21st. I play a Stratocaster.
I have no idea what Kirk plays this with.
Bridge
(Half Time Feel)
(This is the "Die, by my hands..." part)
Each chord is a half note, except the E which is 4 quarter notes
using only
the bottom string. The progression is like this:
E5 E E E E F5 D5 E5 E E E E G5 F5 (x3)
Then it's Ryth Fig 3 for 6 bars. On the sixth bar, another gutair
plays the
following:
|-----------|
|-----------| Go back to where the singing originally started. Play it
|-[~3~]-7\--| through with the third verse, and when you
hit the @ sign,
|-2-3-5-7\\-| go to this next part.

Something for 4 bars... Probably one of the above riffs.
Ryth Fig 2 (twice) Then it's free time.
Then it's 4 chords, with a slight retard:

Now, in the Exact same bar where the E5 Trill starts, this scale
starts, with
two guitars.

And of course, it ends with 2 hard E5 chords, and a slide to nothing.
