Sometimes during the song, those parts are played differently, but its not very noticable.
I think theyre mistakes, but I could be wrong. Just play around that.

Tis something like that. Dont let the chords ring though. Same as the lead guitar, I suppose.
And thats the end! Yay!
This is my first tab-o, but it sounds 100% correct. Ive checked it several times.
The only thing Im not sure about is the post-solo thingy, but what I put sounds pretty good.
Have a most funalicious time!
