These are the chords used in the verse. You can figure out
when to arpeggiate and when to strum them.

The solo is extremely easy to play, but you'll have to figure out the timing by
playing along with the song. This isn't %100 correct, but it's as close as I
could get it. Most of the notes are repeated a lot, and I didn't bother writing
them the exact number of times. This should give you a rough idea though. Also,
you'll need a wah pedal.

It sounds like there is more lead being played in the background towards the end
of the song, but it's hard to hear exactly what it is.. if you want just improvise
over the B natural minor or B minor pentatonic scale with a wah pedal.
Lyrics
Chal dar badar ho
Kitna chalo gai?
Tum keh paikar-e-zo
Saya raho gai?
Arsh ko choomtey ho aaj
Bhool kai woh zaat
Jhoot taley hai dafan
Rah badal keh jo chaley
Lout aa na pao gai
Dhaltey rahein gai qadam
Tum rooth kar
Jao gai kahaan?
Meray paas tum
Reh jao yahaan
Arsh ko choomtey ho aaj
Bhool gaye woh raaz
Maut talak hein dafan
Rah badal kay jo chaley
Ab ruk na pao gai
Manzil to hai adum
Toro in dar-o-deewar kai is saher ko
Chalo soow-e-rahguzar
Jao gai kahaan...
