[F] Lord help [C]me I can't ch[D]ange_________________________________
Thats the main song covered , this repeats a few times and then when
come to the outro section . You can take your slide of now and
change to some rhythm playing and then it's the solo.
oh yes this is where there is some slight phasing , but also it's
switched off for the main body of the solo and gradually builds up
into the end section.

The Guitar Solo
---------------
Now the solo comes in , you guitar should not be totally
screaming for this but should have plenty of gain giving a good impact
the solo is very energetic, i think that you should use only as much
distortion as you like, in the 2nd and 3rd sections notice
how the feel and timing slightly changed , I am only going to cover
the first part.

As you can see it uses the same riff repeating a lot it seems daft
writing it all out like I just did so i'll show you the riff
and how many times it repeats
E-----15--------------15-------------15-------------15-------------15------- B--18----18p15-----18----18p15----18----18p15----18----18p15----18----18p15- G--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D--------------------------------------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is repeated 3 times and on the 4 time play this:
E-----15--------------15--------15----------------------- B--18----18p15-----18----18p15-----18p15----18b20b18p15-- G-------------------------------------------------------- D-------------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------- B--18b20--18b20----18p15-------15-18p15--------15------- G------------------------17b19----------17b19----------- D------------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------
The next riff which is repeated twice is :
E------------------------------------------------------------------------- B---18p15-------15----18p15-------15----18p15-------15----18p15-------15-- G---------17b19-------------17b19-------------17b19-------------17b19----- D------------------------------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
and this follows:
E------------------------------------------------------------------ B-18p15-------15---18p15-------15---18p15-------15----------------- G-------17b19------------17b19------------17b19------15b16--------- D----------------------------------------------------------17p15--- A------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------ E--------------------------------------------------------- B--------------------------------------------------------- G-----15b16----------------15b16----15----17p15--17p15---- D-17----------17p15--17----------17----------------------- A--------------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------?------------------------------------- B---------------------------------18-?-------18-------18-------18-------18- G-----15-17p15-17p15----15--17b19----?-17b19----17b19----17b19----17b19---- D--17----------------17--------------?------------------------------------- A------------------------------------?------------------------------------- E------------------------------------?------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------- B--------18----------18----------18----------18----------- G--17b19----17b17b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17-- D--------------------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------------- B--18----------18----------18----------18----------18----------18------ G-----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17--------- D---------------------------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------- B----------18----------18----------18----------18----------18---- G-17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17------- D---------------------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------------- B--18----------18----------18----------18----------18----------18------ G-----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17----17b19b17--------- D---------------------------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------------- E----------------------------------------------- B---------18--------18---------18--------------- G--17b19------17b19-----17b19-----17p15--------- D-----------------------------------------17---- 6:25 into track A----------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------
