The song structure is very simple; the Bass comes in with drums at
0:10 playing the VERSE riff x 8, then at 0:54 the CHORUS I riff
pattern once through, at 1:16 VERSE riff x 12, then at 2:23 the
CHORUS II riff pattern once through, the at 2:44 VERSE riff all
the way to the end.
The guitar plays the muted VERSE percussive riff from 0:00 until
the it changes to the CHORUS with the Bass at 0:54, then VERSE and
CHORUS again once more, then percussive VERSE riff until the end,
VERY easy.
That's it. Feel free to leave any comments, corrections, suggestions,
or requests. Cheers!
