b/------3-------3-------3-------3------------------------------|
g/-------------------------------------------------------------|
d/-------------------------------------------------------------|
a/-------------------------------------------------------------|
e/-------------------------------------------------------------|

play that a lot until the main riff

e/-------------------------------------------------------------------|
b/-------------------------------------------------------------------|
g/-------------2-----------------------------------------------------|
d/-2-----------2---------2-------------------------------------------|
a/-2-----------0--2--4-4---------------------------------------------|
e/-0--2--3-3-4-------------------------------------------------------|
and that until

preverse
e/---------0-----------------------------------------------------|
b/---------0-----------------------------------------------------|
g/--4------4-----------------------------------------------------|
d/--2------4------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--9---------------|
a/--2------2------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--9---------------|
e/--0-------------4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--7---------------|
                                  [-3-] [-3----------------------|

then yet again another cool riff that's awesome or the verse

e/------0----0----0-----0----0----0----------------------------------|
b/----0---0--0--0---0---0--0---0--0----------------------------------|
g/-4---------4--------------------2----------------------------------|
d/-2---------4----------6---------2----------------------------------|
a/-2---------2----------6---------0---/4--2--0-----------------------|
e/-0--------------------4--------------------------------------------|

however theres a slight variation on some measures


e/------0----0----0-----0----0----0----------------------------------|
b/----0---0--0--0---0---0--0---0--0----------------------------------|
g/-4---------4--------------------2--2--4----------------------------|
d/-2---------4----------6---------2--2--4----------------------------|
a/-2---------2----------6---------0--0--2----------------------------|
e/-0--------------------4--------------------------------------------|

end the verse on
e/---------------------------------------------------------------|
b/---------------------------------------------------------------|
g/--4------------------------------------------------------------|
d/--2------------------------------------------------------------|
a/--2------------------------------------------------------------|
e/--0------------------------------------------------------------|

then it makes a lot of changes to the riff in the intro and back to the verse and preverse.

then a new riff
e/-------0--------0--0-----0---2--2--3-2-2--2--3--2--4-4-4--4-5-4-5---|
b/-------0--------0--0-----0---3--3--3-3-3--3--3--3--5-5-5--5-5-5-5---|
g/-------4--------4--4-----4---2--2--2-2-2--2--2--2--4-4-4--4-4-4-4---|
d/-2--2--2--2---2-2--2--2--2---0--0--0-0-0--0--0--0-------------------|
a/-2--2--2--2---2-2--2--2--2------------------------------------------|
e/-0--0--0--0---0-0--0--0--0------------------------------------------|

e/-2--2--3-2-2--2--3--2----------------------------------------|
b/-3--3--3-3-3--3--3--3----------------------------------------|
g/-2--2--2-2-2--2--2--2----------------------------------------|
d/-0--0--0-0-0--0--0--0----------------------------------------|
