~ADDIONAL LEAD RIFF~
This is the lead guitar lick that is played occasionally throughout the song
(marked by *:). It just consists of keeping the forefinger on the 11th fret of
the B and high E string while hammering on with either the middle or ring finger
and the pinky. Since it requires 2 guitars, I did not include it in my main work
(although the ending little lick in the Intro Riff is also a second guitar, but I
decided to put that in as it's manageable to play with everything else), but if
anyone is interested, here's the tabs! :)
