Part (A) is played throughout the entire song. Part (B) is played on a second
guitar along with it. The other parts could be played by a third guitarist, or
an overdub - whichever your resources allow. Each riff is split into 3 bars
here, the last one seems shorter than the first two, but all these notes line
up right if you've heard the song (I estimate it to be half the size of the
others).

[note: let the notes ring, lightly bend the bridge high then back to normal
while hitting each note for the same tone as I hear on my recording. These
notes have longer pauses between them than it looks - play it slow.]

[note: I didn't tab this because I wasn't sure as to the exact tone - but its
just a few notes bent up and down]
