*Riff A ( "i can't take it much longer. i think i might go insane" -> Riff A )
*Riff B ( "oh my God can't believe...i was disgusted by all the injustice"--echo michael
the injustice" -> riff b )
*solo is immediately played after that gradual 7 bend.
--
this solo is not 100% correct...i tabbed it out by ear but its the
closest thing i can come up with. oh btw to make this solo sound
right you need a heavy distortion stomp box of some sort. i used
the the Tascam cd-GT1 for this particular song. If you have any
questions or comments email me at guitar-girl@att.net
Hope you enjoy!
