Repeat above one more time than:
e ---------------------------------------------------------------|
b --10--10/12--12--12--12--10--9--7----7/10--10--10--10--9--7--5-|

d ------------------------------------------------------------------|
a ------------------------------------------------------------------|
e ------------------------------------------------------------------|
After this you could play the rest of the solo out,
but I just play this little ditty for the five "My oh my ohhh my" parts:
e --3-3-3/4-4-4-4-4/5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-----------------|
b --3-3-3/4-4-4-4-4/5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-----------------|
g --4-4-4/5-5-5-5-5/6-6-6/8-8-8-8-8-----------------|
d --5-5-5/6-6-6-6-6/7-7-7/9-9-9-9-9-----------------|
a --5-5-5/6-6-6-6-6/7-7-7/9-9-9-9-9-----------------|
e --3-3-3/4-4-4-4-4/5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-----------------|
My oh My, My ohh, My
This can be played in anyway, as long as you move down the neck, find a way which
feels comfortable, and sounds best on your guitar, I feel this gives more body to
the sound with one guitar...
The rest of the solo is in the background while the "My oh My" part is going on:
e ----------------------------------------------------------------|
b --12-12-12-10-10----12-12-12-10-10----12/14--14-14-14-12-12-----|

a ----------------------------------------------------------------|
e ----------------------------------------------------------------|
Continues...

Am G Fmaj7 Em
Let me love you true, let me rescue you
