In the original version, solo and outro are played on a celeste (a keyboard
instrument sounding like a glockenspiel). For guitar, the solo looks
something like this:
SOLO (no capo: Eb)
(played two times)
[Eb] [Cm] [Ab] [Bb] [Eb] [Cm] [Ab] [Bb]

The song is in Eb, so I'd suggest using a capo either 1st fret (play: D) or
3rd fret (play: C). Even with capo you can still play the solo as it doesn't
go below the 8th fret.
