The song is played:
#1 x4
#2 x1
#1 x9
#3 x1
#1 x4
#3 x1
#1 x2
#3 x1
and repetition of the part between the asterisks till fade.
A bit into the song, another guitar joins riff #1 with chords in this
progression:
x0023x
x02230
022000
x02230
Note: Riff #1 doesn't stay the same throughout the song. It's varied mainly
by some embellishments on the higher e-string like
e |---------0h3r0-------|
B |-----3---------3-1r0-|
G |---2---2-------------| etc...
D |-0-------------------|
A |---------------------|
E |---------------------|
but I don't bother with these. There's plenty of room for improvisations
anyway, as the song is, to say the least, quite repetitive.
