That's it for the main solo. The solo at the end if probably an
improvisation which he plays differently every time and is pretty hard
anyways.
The other parts of the song just repeat themselves, so just listen to
the song and you should get it.

This was my first tab on the internet, so it it sucks, sorry, but I did
the best I knew how. Later and good luck with the tab!
