Like Lightning

I finally got around to tabbing Brian's lead on this one. He plays it twice, and they're not exactly the same, but they're close enough that I only bothered to tab the first version. One thing to keep in mind: when he bends the B string on 10, he leaves it bent while he's playing the notes on the high E string, and then he unbends it when he comes back to the B string.
