GUITAR SOLO:

	
For the solo, the rhythm follows the following 'feel':

          X       X         X       X           
	|-X--XXXX-X-XXXX--|-X--XXXX-X-XXXX--|

	Chord changes are noted above tab lines, and are 2 or 3 fingered power
chords, depending on what you feel like. For the 'XX' notes, strike the
full chord, on the others just play the lowest note (Usually the E string)
