Guitar solo:
On the studio version, it is played on a single string of an electric guitar.
This is an attempt to translate it in the arpeggio style used for the intro.

Notes :

The actual accompaniment of this song sounds like a piano most of the time, 
so this tab is only my personal view on how it could sound using a guitar.
I wrote it in Am instead of Cm because few can sing as high as Tyler.

The G6/9 chord position (3 5 x 4 5 5) is unusual. 
The idea is to keep the first two strings with the same notes through all the system.
