~ADDITIONAL 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 pulling off 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! :)

Thanks for the feedback. :) Love to hear that my tabs are getting used! I was planning on adding more tabs when I submitted this one to Ultimate Guitar, but it was a pain in the arse to get it posted! Took several weeks and multiple declines before I had a site manager take care of it for me. Too much trouble to try and help the community!
Anyways, if I tried to make Guitar Pro tabbing, I probably could, but honestly I prefer to learn by seeing it on paper and listening to the song rather than seeing it played on GP.
Also, I updated 1 chord, the Cm. Changed it to a CaddBb, which is shown how to play near the bottom. Keep up the playin'!
