 This next riff is played along with the Main Riff. I'm sure you can find where it fits:
e|------------------------------------------------------|
BB|------------------------------------------------------|
G+G|------------------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|------------------------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|-------0-1-0----------------------------0-1-0---------|
E MajorE|---1-3-------1-3--------------------1-3-------3-1-----|

**This riff is the part I am most unsure about. If you feel it is either too difficult or is just wrong, you
can just arpeggiate or strum a D#D# chord for the first measure, then followed by a D#mD#m chord for the second
measure. The A#A# chord stays the same.

Order:
Main Riff-------------x2/ 8 measures
Nothing---------------8 measures
Main Riff-------------x1/ 4 measures
Pre-chorus------------x1/ 4 measures
Chorus Riff 1---------x2/ 8 measures
Chorus Riff 2---------x2/ 4 measures

Pre-chorus------------x1/ 4 measures
Chorus Riff 1---------x4/ 16 measures
