    ( X: short rest)

BASS: I think the bass plays the same the guitar plays, but
      its volume is so low I can hardly hear it.

Riff C (bass-interlude):

G [ -----------------------------------------------------------
D [ -----------------------------------------------------------
A [ ---5--5--5---5--5-5---5--5--5----8--8--8---7--7--7---------
E [ -----------------------------------------------------8--8--
    ( listen to the song to get the timing right)

G   ----------------------------------------------------------]
D   -------------------------------------------5--5--5--------]
A   ---5--5--5---5--5-5---5--5--5----8--8--8------------------]
E   -----------------------------------------------------8----]

Riff D:
For the guitar riffD is the same as riffB, but using distortion
and a different rythm (listen to the song for the rythm).

BASS:

G [ ----------------------------------------------------------
D [ ----------------------------------------------------------
A [ ----------------------------------------------------------
E [ --0--0--0--0----2--2--2--2----2--2--2--2----3--3--3--3----
