Riff 1 (clean)

This riff continues through to the verse.

Or you can play Riff 2 like this (which I think this is how he plays it):
E|-----------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------|
G|-----6------------6------6-----------------4h6-|
D|-----7-------------------7-----------4h6h7-----|
A|-0-0----0-0--0-7*----0-0----0--4h5h7-----------|
D|-----------------------------------------------|
It's a little harder with the harmonic there, but both ways sound almost
exactly the same, so you can play it either way you choose really.
Play Riff 2 x2
