Tuning: E A D G B E
[Solo]
This solo is played on a console steel guitar. I play an electric guitar with 22 frets.
I have added description where I have interpreted the song to suit an electric guitar.
A) The console steel slides down from the note on the 12th fret, gradually falling out of tune.
I start my note with a half step bend at the 11th fret and then slowly release my bend while alternate
picking (8 picks in total)
B) The console steel extends to a 24th fret and even beyond.
There is a short series of notes played up at the 24th fret which I cannot articulate on my 22-fret guitar.
Instead, I bend my 22nd fret up a full step and then alternate pick (similar to the previous time only faster
to flow straight into the following notes) (12 picks total) while slowly releasing the bend.
C) (Note that the lyrics return at this point)
The console steel slides from the 7th fret up the 24th,
and I honestly cannot say that this sounds the same on an electric guitar, but its sounds pretty cool anyway.

That's it! I hope I haven't bored you with detail. But I hope you enjoy playing this song!
And please comment if you think there is a better way to play this solo. I'd love to hear.
