Tuning: Standard (E A D G) INTRO (0:00 - 1:01) First A note (5) is played only when starting the riff up. Continues from the ending 5 to the 12-12-14 on following bars. The E on the A string (7) is barely rung, but audible.

~no bass from 1:01 to 2:27~ MAIN RIFF (2:27 - 4:53) Very slight variations in this riff; sometimes instead of sliding down from 3\1 on the E string he slides 3\1 on the A string and continues with the F(1) on E. Other small variations you can pick up on, ie sometimes the first F(3) on D is rung longer, sometimes no ending G(3) on E, etc G|------------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------3--3------------------| A|-------------------3-3-----0h3-3-----------3--3--0-3-3-----0h3-3--| E|-5-5-----x-5-x-5----------------3\1-1---------------------------3-| MAIN RIFF EXPANDED (4:53 - 6:16, 6:37 - 7:19) These four verses play out in the following order then repeat in nonsequential order with very slight imporovisations. There is a resting phase in the middle of this section from 6:16 to 6:37.

I think he actually slides on the G string but I found this to be quite awkward sounding.
