This next part is kinda crazy, so hang in there, and 
be sure to read the little notes i included, or you
won't play the right part at the right time....

except before the solo, and the 
last time on the solo before the bridge,
look at the last little part.

with a weird slidy hammer on thing
right before the bridge...

---------------------------------------------
thats about the end of the craziness, so if 
you followed my directions and read the notes
i included, you should have made it through
fine...
---------------------------------------------


bridge:
First two times if you listen close, he does this,
then the next part.
g|----------------------------12------12-|
d|----12------10-----10------------------|
a|----------8---8--8---8--1010---1010----|
e|-10---10-------------------------------| x2
b|---------------------------------------|

heres the part that everyone thinks he does 4 times,
but he only does it the second 2 if you listen close...
the two parts are extremely similar cept for the
octave note in the first one....
g|----------------------------12------12-|
d|------------10-----10------------------|
a|----12----8---8--8---8--1010---1010----|
e|-10---10-------------------------------| x2
b|---------------------------------------|

now the other part of the bridge, where the congo things come in...
