The chord changes for the solo are as follows: /D G /A G /D G /D A /D G /Bm A /D Bm /Em A /G / DF# D/ with / / representing 1 measure. ======================================================================== Additional Notes by Oliver K. Reichl: There are at least five "guitars" in this tune. The electric is definitely some sort of Les Paul (of vintage stock with Scholzian modifications, no doubt). Guitar #1: 12-string acoustic Guitar #2: 6-string electric (rhythm, power chords) Guitar #3: 6-string electric (leads-melody) Guitar #4: 6-string electric (leads-harmony) Guitar #5: bass guitar Tab for pre-chorus riff and main solo by Oliver K.
