Gary Richarth's Soloing ability is beyond my interpreting ability
(im am deeply sorry)
I can tell you that the guitar solo is in the key of G...and its played in
pentatonic scales. The rythm is the verse. first note of the first solo is
B|---18b20---------| in the second solo its G|---5b7---|
try to work off that
order
