This What I Have So Far-And Its Only what i have picked up by myself
To do this solo you need to have a glass/steel slide-something to put on the index finger
						     and slide the notes...


If you dont have the slide...better get one} (It wont have the same effect).


Tuning-droped D
(By tuning the top string to D from E; also tuning the smallest E down)


D-----------  -Slide like shows /-slide down
B-----------                    \-slide up
G-----/7----                    ~-vibrate
D------0*---  -Let this ring*
A-----------
D-----------
\This is how the tuning should look like,(nevermind the notes...)


<Ill tab out the intro of the solo>


It should sound acuostic guitar with violins:
Fist intro: Use clean drive or acuostic sound (a little <Overdrive> wont hert) 
      Solo: Use <distortion>+<chorus> (Should sound deep and delayed) 


"When the violins beggin to play rapidly" go with the guitar in the rythem :)
