This is how the riffs are played most of times. If Sorychta played an art. harm. on 4th repeat of a riff i didn't bother to write that down. My goal is to write a correct, as short and as easy to read as possible transcription. Tune to 1 whole step down (DGCFAD). INTRO (w/ wah-wah pedal & some flange effect) D|--------------10----------------------10-----------| A|--12----------------------12-----------------------| F|-----12-11-12----12-11-12----12-11-12----12-11-12--| C|---------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------| D|--------------10----------------------10-----------| A|--12----------------------12-----------------------| F|-----12-11-12----12-11-12----12-11-12----12-11-12--| C|---------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------| D|-------------------------------------------------| A|--12---------------------------------------------| F|-----12-11-12-11h12p11p9-11-9-7-9-7-6-7-6-4-6-4--| C|-------------------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------| D|-------------------------------------------------| D|-------------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------| F|--3-4-3------------------------------------------| C|--------5-8-5-4-5-4-3-4-5-4-3-4-5-4-3-4-4-4-4----| G|-------------------------------------------------| D|-------------------------------------------------| RIFF A (4x then 4x with LEAD A) D|-----------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------| F|-----------------------------------| C|-----------------------------------| G|------4/5-4-4-4-4-----4/5----------| D|--2/3-----2-2-2-2-2/3-----0-0-3-0--| .......
