The guitar in the verse is quite quiet but from what i can tell

Chorus
im not completly sure about this part, but you can get the jist of it.
I think when you play it the second time its slighy different after the open chord.
Listen to the CD, i cant work it out because its hard to hear properly.

Solo
lots of distorcion and if you playing this live in a band, it doesnt matter if you
play extra strings or are a bit messy, it adds to the effect as long as you not too
sloppy.
