That's the basic riff for most of the song. When I went to see them live though the
played it like this:

Obviously it can be played either way, it's down to you as to what you think sounds
easier to play.
In the verse after a while it then goes like this:
"There is a little punk rock mafia
Everywere you go" (00:56)

The open strings played here basically imitate the bass. The whole song is pretty much
two riffs just alternating between each other, but for the bridge at 02:48
"Of course we immigrants wanna sing all night long"

Again it can be played either way, down to personal preference.
That's it pretty much, any comments or ratings very much appreciated :o)
