Tuning: Standard

This is my first tab that i figured out for myself.
The Solo uses a similar note cluster to the lead intro,
so you can have a shot at figuring out the intro from this too. 
It's fairly easy. 

Enjoy, and feel free to comment or correct anything

This riff is using the key of A# major I Think

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|------------3-4~--4-3-4-3h4p3p1--------------------------------------------|G|--3----3-5----------------------3--------3/5-3-----------------------------|D|-----3---------------------------------3-----------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

This second lick uses A# Major too, but at an octave higher.
Octaves aside, its exactly the same notes as the first riff,
except for the ending, which stoops into higher notes of the A# Major scale

e|-----------------10-11~--11-10-11-10h11p10p8------------13/15--13----------|B|--/11-----11-13-------------------------------11----11---------------------|G|-------10------------------------------------------------------------------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

And the whole solo ends on this riff, still in A# Major

e|---11-10-11-10h11p10-------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------11----------------------------------------------------|G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

I've tried to put in as much theory as i can into the descriptions,
to give you an idea of how i figured this one out.

It's a great solo, and so easy to play, for something as epic-sounding

Thanks :)
