At the end of the 4th time:
Ah

On the 7th time, the lyrics come in:
My mother was a witch,
She was burned alive,
Thankless little bitch,
For the tears I cried,
Take her down now,
Dont want to see her face,
Blistered & Burnt,
Cant hide my disgrace.

Verse (x10)

As I watched my mother die,
I, lost my head,
Revenge now I sought,
To break with my bread,
Taking no chances,
You come with me,
Ill split you to the bone,
Help set you freeee.

Twenty-seven, everyone was niiiice,
Gotta see em, make em pay the priiiice,
See their bodies out on the iiiiice,
Take my time.

Chorus (x4)

Am I evil?
Yes I am,
Am I evil?
I am man, Yes I am.

Ive written two ways to play this part of the solo.

The 1st one is the right way to play it but it is also the hardest. For right-handed
(vise-versa for leftys!), this is the technique you should use unless you have freakishly
hands or long fingers:
You must use your left hand to finger-tap the 5th & 8th frets for the 1st line (same
for 9th & 6th & then 10th & 7th frets in the next few lines).
Then use your right hand to finger-tap the 12th fret (same goes for 13th & 14th in the
few lines).
This may cause you to drop your pick so its recommended that you use any finger asides
your index & your thumb & your baby finger (unless you have a freakishly strong baby finger).
