After the last verse, it cools down:
Jam in C# Dorian
Jake toys around with this chord in rhythm.
C#m7add11
e---4--
b---7--
g---4--
d---6--
a---4--
e------
He likes to play with the 7th fret of the B string, going down to 5 and 4 sometimes
Once Brendan gives the nob to move the jam into the next section, it changes to the following chords:
C#5 E5 F#5 G#5 F#5
E---------------------------------------------------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G----6-----9----11--/--13--\--11--------------------|
D----6-----9----11--/--13--\--11--------------------|
A----4---6-7-----9--/--11--\---9--------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|
Brendan's solo is in C# Dorian, which an emphasis on the #6 (A#)
Then when Brendan switches to rhythm, it changes to something like this:
C#5 E5 D# G#5
E---------------------------------------------------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G----6-----9-----8--/--13---------------------------|
D----6-----9-----8--/--13---------------------------|
A----4-----7-----6--/--11---------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|
Jake's solo is in C# Minor Pentatonic, which some hints of Aeolian (some A naturals in there)
Jake's Part at the end of jam
E--12-11------12-11------12-11----------12-11-----------|
B--------12~--------12~--------12^(14)--------12^(14)---|
