Riff #2 begins with vocals on 2nd half of clean tone part:

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|--------8---7---------8--8--8--8--8---10--10--10---7--7--7--7-7--------------|

|---9-------------9----9--9--9--9--9----9---9---9----7--7--7--7-7-------------|

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

End: This part is kind of tricky, the chords in parentheses are arpeggiated

(for those of you not familiar with this, it requires strumming through the

notes individually and quickly in a smooth motion). Also, all the chords

that are only open strings are played with upstrokes, this is important to

get the right rhythm and feel of the part.

|---x---x------------------------------------------------------------------------3----------------------|

|---x---x------------x---x---x---x----(x)---x--------(x)---x-------x---x----3---------------------------|

|---x---x---x-------x---x---x---x----(4)--------4---(2)--------2---x---x---4---4---7---9---11-----------|

|---2----------------------------------------------------------------------------5---5---5---7----9-----|

|---x----------------------------------------------------------------------------3---3------------------|

2nd time through is the same but at the end this progression replaces the ascending octave chords

|---5----------------------------------------------------|

|---7----------------------------------------------------|

|---7----x-----------------------------------------------|

|---7----4-----then slide down into next phrase----------|

|---5----5-----------------------------------------------|

|---5----------------------------------------------------|

The final time through this progression, end with this chord:

|----7----|

|----7----|

|----8----|

|----9----|

|----9----|

|----7----|

2nd part of End:

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------3------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------3------------------|

|---x---x---x-------------------------x---x---x-------------------------------4----2--2-------------|

|---x---x---x----10---10slide9-----x---x---x----9----9slide12----10----3----2---2-------------------|

The only difference in the 4 measure of the end are the changes in the octave chord progression,

which I'm sure you can hear, and they are:

|---------------------|

|---------------------|

|----7---7slide9------|

|---------------------|

|----5---5slide7------|
