The solo consists of two parts. The first half (low part) is played in an E minor scale
and the second (high part) is played in a G minor scale. Have fun and improvise over
the solo. Add your own touch to the song. You’ll have much more fun doing this than
staring dazed at your computer learning the original solo; plus you’ll learn to improvise and
solo better.
