Go back and forth between the heavy verse part 3 and part 4 four times except on the
last time instead of playing part 4 play part 1. Hopefully that isn't confusing...
Then play part 2 again...
Then go back and forth between part 3 and 4 like I said right above.


SOLO: Heavy verse part 2 is being played behind the solo

Eb|-volume swell--|--------------------------------------------------------------|

Db|----x----------|--X-X--X-X--X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X--X-X-X--X-X---X--X--X--X--|
Ab|----5----------|--8-7/-8-7/-8-7-5-3-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--8-7/8--7/8--10-10--8-12--|
Db|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|

Whenever I play this solo for the next part I either just sustain the last octave from
the above riff or I just improvise playing something near the 20th fret on the first 2
strings. If you improvise just end on a full step bend on the 20th fret on the high E
string. 

The last part is just all the heavy riffs...you figure out the order...it's not hard.


END ON:

Eb|----|
Bb|----|

Db|----|
Ab|-2--|
Db|-2--|
