Those Riffs are played throughout the song, except in the middle section,
where riff one cuts out, and where there is a third, soft riff played by G3
which I cannot tab out til i get the CD, since my computers headphone output
is busted. Also it should be noted that the notes before the bar are only
played at the riff's entrance.
