Lead part 1: e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| b|-8/7-8/10-8/7-5-7-8/7-8/7-8/7-5/3-3/1-0-1-/5--3--1-0-1-0(whammy)-| g|-----------------------------------------------------------------| d|-----------------------------------------------------------------| a|-----------------------------------------------------------------| e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| Lead part 2: e|------------------------------------------------------------| b|-8/7-8/10-8/7-5-7-8/7-8/7-8/7-5/3-3/1-0-1-/5--3-1-3-5-3-5b6-| g|------------------------------------------------------------| d|------------------------------------------------------------| a|------------------------------------------------------------| e|------------------------------------------------------------| Lead part 3: e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| b|-8/7-8/10-12-10-12-15-17-15-17-15-20-19--/8--7-5-3-5-3--/8--7-3-5-3-5b-| g|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| d|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| a|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| Lead part 4: e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| b|-8/7-8/10-8/7-5-7-8-7-5-3-5-7-5--3-1(whammy)-3(whammy)-5(whammy)-8-------|(whammy) g|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| d|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| a|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| Then the rhythm strikes dead notes and increases in volume, and the lead switches tone plays: e|------------------------------------------------------| b|-7/5-3/2-3/5/7--7/5-3/2-3/5/7-------------------------| g|------------------------------9/7-5/4-5-0--9/7-5/4/5-0| d|------------------------------------------------------| a|------------------------------------------------------| e|------------------------------------------------------| This lead part repeats twice, then switches to: e|------------------------------------------------------------------| b|-7-7--8--10-10-----7-7--8--10-10----8-8--7--5-5----8-8--7--5-5----| g|------------------------------------------------------------------| d|------------------------------------------------------------------| a|------------------------------------------------------------------| e|------------------------------------------------------------------| After this lead part goes through twice, a third guitar comes into wildly soloing using the same scale. I'm really not going to bother tabbing that out. If you can't improvise, find someone who can for this solo. That's about it. I'm glad to be the first to submit a correct and full tab for this song, as it's a great one.
