Heads Of State

    These are very quick slides & the timing is kind of
    weird...

In the first part of this solo, hold the F# (11th fret) for a second
before doing the slide. & slide from the F#; don't pick
the notes in the slide. Pick scrape at the very end.

Palm mute the first and last parts.
The notes in parentheses during the first & last
part of the second solo are optional. I don't
think he plays them on the album but I've heard
live recordings of the song where he does play them.
