Just before the lead:

WELL
----------------| The lead in this song is pretty
----------------| basic and quite frankly, rather
--9-7-----------| plain. Below you'll find my own
------9-7-------| lead for this song which should
----------10-7--| immediately follow the run shown
----------------| on the left.

b=bend h=hammer r=rake /=slide up =slide down v=vibrate
