WITHOUT AUTHORS' PERMISSION. THANK YOU.
Tuning: Eb
Note: For Riff 2 and the first bar of Riff 3,
I've put the live album version because I like it better.
On the studio CD, the second chord in these riffs is just
a normal Cb power chord instead of what's listed here.
Acoustic part: Listen to song for strumming patterns
