*Only play this solo if you are playing the Incesticide version. If you are
not playing
the Incesticide version, play the verse until the guitar solo ends. Also, I
am not sure
this solo is correct. If not, you can improv or raise the verse an octive
higher.
Double tempo for the solo. You can play it all pulls or hammers if you think
it sounds better.
