Corrections:
-There are no C majors in the verse, except at the very end of one (the final chord in the verse);
-There is no C# in the verse. For me it sounds more like Bdim;
-In chorus, the progression goes Fm Cm Bbm C. Yes, first C minor, then C major.
That is all. You pretty much have aced the solo. 5 stars :)

I'm pretty sure Mike used capo on first fret in this song.
