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 A# aka A# 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 .
