A note to whoever decides to play this:
This song is probably more keyboard than guitar. Honestly I think
the intro riff and solos might be the only guitar on the whole track.
There is a lot of overdubbing that I know I missed, it’s just too hard
to hear.
I also believe that the solo may be the only place you would need a
7-string. So if you only have a 6-string tune each string down 5 half
steps to B, E, A, D, F#, B. If you do this you’re going to have to
increase the higher octave by a half step on some of the parts.
