6:-4-4-4--6-6-6--7-7-7--10-10-10--| (put full rest stops between chord
changes. Might even sound best with
muted string noise in that case.
This chorus riff sounds best when
totally alternate picking==up-down-up)
(after chorus riff 1)

3:-------------------------------|
4:-6-6-6-6-9-9-9-9-12-12-12-12---|

6:-4-4-4-4-7-7-7-7-10-10-10-10---|
(after chorus riff 2) --just keep repeating that D chord (w/ 10 & 12 frets)
continually...in the "Cable Guy" soundtrack version, that chord is bent
after several strums.

3:-----------------------------------------------------------|
4:----------------4-------4----------------------------------|
5:-5~~--------4h6-----4h6------------------------------------|
6:----7-5-4-4--(4)--4-------- (if you can, hold those 4-6-4-| notes, or the
G#-D#-F# so that whole chord is sounded
out)
There you go and enjoy!
