    I ran out of room but at the end of the solo Lee plays XX7777 harmonic and bends it with a trem bar, or by pulling on the neck. here is where my notation gets weird. guitar 1 (again strumming not shown) FIG 1 FIG 2

    guitar 2 plays 002200 with fig 1. and 000000 with fig 2. it sounds bad when i play it too, but guitar 2 is way down in the mix and i promise that is what they play. guitar 2 with FIG 1 (repeat) repeat

    trem pick the last slide down. guitar 1 plays 006600 while guitar 2 plays 886600 then 776600. guitar 2 continues as above while guitar 1 repeats:
    A---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| A---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| G---3-3-3-2-3-5-3-2-2-2-2-2-0-2-| G---3-3-3-2-3-5-3-2-2-2-2-2-0-2-| F#------------------------------| F#------------------------------|
    it ends with Lee dropping the trem bar on 776600 with the top 4 somewhat muted.
