some notes on the song.......
i'm not completely sure if that's how the solo's played. that's as
close as i could manage. It's to be played along side the verse, with the
same timing - but instead of just hitting one note, hit the notes quickly
and repeatedly until the proper progression ensues. For the song itself, try
to just let your wrist have a field day. the beat is something like...
 
E EE E B BB B A A AA Ab E2
 
Ab doesn't have to stand on it's own, it's really just a suggested note for a
sudden slide down to E2.
 
make it fast, and add lots of distortion.
