          Bb                                        D**

        G                                                       C

No solo tab, but the chords during the solo are basically just G C A# and D over and over.

End on G.

*(you can play Bb aka Bb at the bottom at fret 1 with the bass note on string A, or you 
play it on fret 7 with the
bass note on the low E, it's interesting because in the aforementioned performance, 
plays it the first way where
as B.P. plays it the second way. It's all up to you)

** for the Ds in the chorus, use an open D.

As a note, I prefer using A# version 1 during the verse, and A# version 2 for the chorus.
