Here's a link a decent chord-tab for the song:

****************************************************************
This part of the song caught me, as it's rare to hear a
guitar solo in such alternating key signatures.
I've divided this outro solo part into 2 parts: A and B.
They're similar; B is just 2 semi-tones higher than A.
It's all just 4 bars repeated, and each repetition is split
into two key signatures.
In part A, the first half is in straight C minor, and the
second half is in F# minor. But since the chord is
Dmaj7, the root note is also to be concidered D.
This is also called a lydian scale, in this case D lydian;
and it IS just a F# minor scale with D as root note.
Same goes for part B. D minor in the first half, and E
lydian in the second, which is G# minor with E as root
note.
Theoretically, it's not that complicated at all - it's just a
mind-blowing job to solo like that! :)
