First guitar should play first riff 4 times while

Seccond guitar plays the second riff.

Slow down at the last for notes to get fade to the

Fast solo not included.

I hope this will help you a lot. Besure to study

the bridge first riff and second riff well. If you

can play them well you have an excellent exercise

to warm your fingers before playing.
