CLiff of Dover

Wanna know what scales are used on that song. I know the tabs can be found online easily but I want to play by ear. So far got a few parts sound almost right but I can't make out the scales used. Help appreciated.

There's e minor something

 

[Elijah_C]

The intro features the E minor pentatonic scale with some color added from E Aeolian and E blues scales. The melody of is based on the G major (Ionian). The phrases of the solo are based on the E minor/G major pentatonic scale. Lots of chord tones and creative chord voicings as well.
