And Thats it! as you can hear there is a third solo played over the second but it sounds good enough like that
The solos really aren't as hard as they look as they are based on the simple pentatonic scale but the hard thing is getting the stresses right to make it sound even better.
So the complete song goes:

Intro x3
Main x2
Verse x2
main x1
verse x 2
interlude 1 x2
interlude 1.5 x1
main x2
verse x2
interlude2 x2
main x2
verse x2
interlude2 x2
interlude3 x2
solo1 x1
interlude3 x2
interlude2 x4
main x2
verse x2
interlude1 x2
interlude1.5 x1
intro x2
interlude4 x2
solo2 x1
interlude4 x3
end x1

Obviously a fantastic song and if you havn't got it go buy their album "paranoid"!!!
oh and if anyone has heard of the small school band 3rd Nipple, i would just like to say they suck!!!!!!!!
