The chords were a bit of a struggle. At first I thought Geoff was playing the same chords in many places but as I listened I found he changes them around while keeping one note constant. This song is pretty interesting chordwise especially the part after the second solo where there's this chord cycle that sounds like the verse but is actually different chords. I have no idea why these substititions work harmonically though. Oh well... I just tabbed the beginning of the solo phrase. The rest I'll leave up to you to improvise - Key of C-minor. The X:es represent muted strokes. I only wrote them out in the beginning but they continue throughout the song.
