thats it. there may be some trips on the open strings of the first riff and I
cant tell if the guitar goes from the c to b (and the d# to d) on that or if
it holds the c and d#. Also there may be some tremelo picking on the G and A
on the 4th major riff in the song and the 2nd to last riff in the song.
