Hey!
May I add:
After the drum intro, half a bar or so before the main riff starts, the guitar comes in with:
E|-----------------------|
B|-----------------------|
G|-----------------------|
D|-----------------------|
A|-----------------5--7--|
E|---~-~-~-~---5h7-------|
... and then straight onto riff 1
Correct me if I am wrong :)
Thanks!!
