After this it`s just back to the intro (watch out when they go into the verse again
because they cut the intro just a bit short), verse and melody part 1 again before
they end it all with break nr. 2

/ = Slide up
\ = Slide down
" = Tremolo picking (very fast picking)
b = Bend up
h = Hammer-on
p = Pull-off
tr= trill (rapid hammerons/pulloffs with the notes it`s between)
