Could you please PM me the tabs for the tapping part? I want to look at the notes and try to understand what makes it sound so amazing

Man, you haven't let knowledge escape, you have let knowledge pass to new generations This is how we learn what we know don't we? Imagine all scientists keeping their discoveries secret, what would happen then But I promise I won't use this tapping in any solo of mine I can't do tapping anyway, I never learned it..-------------------- |

It is a solo in the true function of a solo, it would fit in with a cool song, it takes you from one place to another musically, it has purpose.
