If the intro riff is a bit tough to nail down at thatspecific rhythm, thentry inputting your own stle into it. I think I TABbed it in the timing thatMike plays itin Riff 2 is a bit buried under the verses and is yet to be figured out byme. I willwork on it soon. My brain couldn't take the song anymore so I opted to postit as is andget to work on another song off of the album. Riff 3 was very tough to get.I thoughtit sounded a bit different each time I heard it. I tried it at different EQsettings andI also slowed it down to half-speed with a four-track recorder. I'm hopingthis is right.I've watched Mike play it before but, I decided to transcribe it now ratherthan when theband was on tour and I could actually watch him play it. How stupid can Iget! I dovaguely recall him playing it in the A-chord position that I've TABbed itin. I was curiousback then and tried to watch. The other parts of the song are very simpleto reproduce.Just watch the slight chord placement changes in the chorus.
