OK here's the solo, you have to play it fast, notice that there is 2
bars for guitar 1 and only one for guiatar 2, so that means in the time it
takes to play guitar 2's part you must play both bars of guitar 1. Get it ?

Suggestion by GELB JOSH (jgelb@home.com)
hey, the father of mine tabs are wrong for the distorted part,
i'll just copy and paste because im lazy,
i have the so much for the afterglow book. here is whats on (your) page:
The only difference is:
changes are made in the number of chords and the
formation, just adding a few notes to each, play it
distorted, it makes a big difference,
not as much on acoustic though.
Second Suggestion from GELB JOSH (jgeb@home.com)
hey jason, some dude e-mailed me asking about the father of mine solo,
so i typed it from the (SMFTA offical tabulature) book. its:

[Db5] Oh Yeah__[Db5]
Suggestion by GELB JOSH (jgelb@home.com)
hey, the father of mine tabs are wrong for the distorted part,
i'll just copy and paste because im lazy,
i have the so much for the afterglow book. here is whats on (your) page:
D|--6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-4-4-6-6--|
A|--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-6-6-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-4-4-6-6--|
E|----------------4-4-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-4-4--|
The only difference is:
B|------------------------------------|
G|--6-6-6-6-6--5-5-3-2-2-2-2-2-3-3-5--|
D|--6-6-6-6-6--6-6-4-3-3-3-3-3-4-4-6--|
A|--4-4-4-4-4--6-6-4-3-3-3-3-3-4-4-6--|
E|-------------4-4-2-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-4--|
changes are made in the number of chords and the
formation, just adding a few notes to each, play it
distorted, it makes a big difference,
not as much on acoustic though.
Second Suggestion from GELB JOSH (jgeb@home.com)
hey jason, some dude e-mailed me asking about the father of mine solo,
so i typed it from the (SMFTA offical tabulature) book. its:
