|-3--------------|-------------------|---------------|-----------2------| Fine G |-3-------*| |-3-------*| |-0-------*| |-0-------*| |---------*| |---------*| That's all there is to it. I haven't transcribed the lead parts, but according to me, this is the kind of song where you get more fun improvising on it than playing the note for note solos. If you want to improvise your own lead parts, all you need to know is the C major pentatonic scale. Have fun!
