Guitars, but it will sound correct, if you use this Tab (for 2 Guitars):

Solo:
Too long to tab here exactly, it's really simple; you can figure it out yourself.
(Just on the F#-String, play  |: 9 – 11 – 13 - 11 :| 16 – 18 , etc. (play 8 quavers for each note)  

End:

Guitar 1 plays the Intro (Clean):  6 times

Lyrics will follow soon.
