This tab took me goddamn *FOREVER* (12hrs+) to make because of that pesky solo. This is my first complete tab of a song, so let me know if I goofed anywhere. I hope you like it, cuz it took forever and this song rox!
I`d like to thank TheJoker for his help on the main solo! It`s a bitch to learn but sounds cool with the right distortion.

On the first starred piece, bend the 7 to 8, release the bend and quickly slide to 8. The second starred piece, hammer 5 to 7, bend the 7 to 8, tap the 8 on the b string with your pinky while holding the bend, release the bend, then bend it upwards to 8 again. This is all in one fluid motion. GOOD LUCK! It took me a good 20 minutes to get it all right and get my fingers moving in the right directions :)
