through out the song. You repeat it alllooooottt

The Main Riff is going on during the chorus as well. I think there is something else
on during the chorus to but I am not sure.

For this I think you can pinch harmonic on the ninth fret on the B string.  Its pretty
I guess it depends where at on the string you pick it at. Probably closer to the neck pickup.

Theres sort of a solo goin on at the end. I couldn’t really tell what was goin on tho.
 
Also I am pretty sure I am missing something in the chorus but then again there is
much going on in this song. I hope this helps.  --Jimmy Ashcraft--
