(remember: just follow the bass drum)
for the next riff i can't tell what the bass is doing but it mainly sounds like its slamming
the C (open). and the chord behind the guitar is a C anyway, so it works out.

just go open with the bass drum.
for the bridge that goes back into the "forever" part, its C (open) again.
there's a lot of open in AILD songs.
