Solo (2:29)
===========

Note: This next section is my best guess as to what the rhythm 
guitar is playing underneath the solo. Its volume in the mix is
really low, which makes it pretty difficult to hear clearly, but 
hopefully this is a fairly close rendition to what is being played
in the song (please feel free to leave me a comment if you have 
any corrections/revisions!)
