Description
The rhythm underneath the solo here is very similar to the chorus rhythm, but the progression is slightly different.
This section is 8 bars long played 3 times; the 1st two times are identical, and on the third pass we move to a II-V turnaround for the last 2 bars.
Remember that we are in a dropped-D tuning! So when I call out the chords on the 6th string, it might be confusing: a G chord looks like it's an A at the 5th fret, and an A chord looks like it's a B at the 7th fret, but they are actually G and A chords because our low string is tuned down a whole step.
