then main riff (intro) once and then the chorus once BUT play it two frets up so
its like this:

some tremolo picking comes in so:

this is the toughest,(3x) on the last time, go a string down like this V

then theres another verse, (played up 2 frets again) then a chorus, and after a few
repeats, tremolo comes in again. fade out
Enjoy!
