Solo

This probably uses the Whammy but I'm poor and don't have one so I'll guess...

e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|--14b--14b--14b-14b----14b--14b-----|
D|------------------------------------| x2

E|------------------------------------|

e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------|
A|---12b--12b--12b-12b----12b--12b----|
E|------------------------------------|

For the last part, first 2 time you bend the string and strike it twice whilst still bent, on the last one tremolo pick the bent string.

e|--------------------------------------------------|
B|---17b--17-17--17b--17-17--17b-17-17-17-17-17-17--|

G|-------------------|
D|--9-8-7-6-5-4------| 
A|--7-6-5-4-3-2-2----|
E|--------------0----|

After the outro it sounds like there's some notes picked but they're too faint and it doesn't matter.
