NOTES: This song makes use of a particular riff, introduced at the beginning. This
pattern is played over the chords being strummed in the background. So, when the
rhythm guitar strums the "A" chord, the lead guitar plays this riff over A, when
the background guitar plays "D", the pattern stays the same, but is then played
over "D". This pattern occurs consistently throughout the song. I'll tab out the
pattern over each chord once; after that, I'll assume the reader knows the pattern
and is playing it over the transcribed chords :)
