For the second solo just improvise on the first, because, to be honest, it
is extremely
to tab when Gem and Noel Improvise, until you get to this cool little bit

e--------------------------------------------------------------------------

B------7-7-\-0-/-7-7-7-

Then it goes to what I can only say is a take on Led Zeppelins Kashmir,
which repeats
a little

e--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---------|
B--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---------|

D--------------------------------------------------------------|
A--------------------------------------------------------------|

“Yeah She coming down fast” part


e-2--2--2--2------------------------|
B-3--3--3--3------------------------|
G-2--2--2---------------------------|
D-0-----0----3-2-0------------------|
A-------------------3-2-0-----------|
E---------------------------3-------|

Then the guitars go into feedback for about 30 seconds, but comes back with
noels first
of the song, again its hard to tab so I can only give a few riffs to use in
it :
This is how it starts anyway
e-------------------------------2-2-2-|
B--13b15--13b15--13b15----------3-3-3-|
G-----------------------10~~~~~-2-2-2-|
D-------------------------------0-0-0-|
A-------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------|

Heres another riff used a bunch of times


e--------------------------------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------------------------------|
G----------10---------------10---------------------------------|
D--10-12-------12----10--12-----12-----------------------------|
A--------------------------------------------------------------|
E--------------------------------------------------------------|

Sorry but you’re going to have to just improvise until the Wah-Wah bit at
the end :

e----------------------------------|
B----------------------------------|
G--0h2p0h2p0h2p0h2p0h2p0h2p0h2p0---|
D----------------------------------|
A----------------------------------|
E----------------------------------|

And that is probably the closest you’ll get to Oasis’s take on the Beatles
classic
Skelter
