Solo

Here's the beginning of the solo.  It's not exactly the same as on the CD but sounds a lot like it.  I know the beginning is different because it Kirk uses wah and the 15p14p13 aren't on the CD.  

     *tremelo pick this note fast as hell and gradually 
      bend up a step
   (w/wah)

This fill is played during the 2nd verse and after the solo.

Lyrics:

Yeah, I feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you
That's running through
Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

 One day we'll see
 The dance come down to me
 Yeah come on come on now take the chance
 That's right 
 Let's dance

Snake, I am the snake
Tempting, that bite you take
Let me make your mind, leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what ya need, hunger I will feed

 One day we'll see
 The dance come down to me
 Yeah come on come on now take the chance
 Haha! 
 Let's dance

Yeah, come dancin'
(solo)

 One day we'll see
 The dance come down to me
 Yeah come on come on now take the chance
 

Yeah, I feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you
That's running through
Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

 One day we'll see
 The dance come down to me
 Yeah come on come on now take the chance
 That's right
 Let's dance

It's nice to see you here
Haha!
