This pattern can be used for the Verses and Chorus, due to the
nature of the song.
I wrote the following solo to capture the spirit of the song, while
staying different from the exact melody. You can have a rythm guitar
play the normal chords behind the solo, or others if you have ones
you'd rather use. Feel free to fool around with my solo if you want,
although I'd definitely be interested in what you write fo it, so
please send it along if you wish.
