Lock Up The Night- very basic version in Drop D

I didn?t tab out the solo and I don?t claim to show
exactly how they play it but this tab sounds good
played along with the album so I think it?s worth posting.
Drop your low E string 2 half-steps for this song.
(Please ignore if some  appear, i don?t know what this is)

2.Now the part with the strange time meter. You might need to listen a few times to get 
rhytm. It?s not really difficult
but it?s really odd if you haven?t played stuff like this.
It first comes in without vocals and continues while the part
"Take the day now for the Lord" is sung.
