I'm working on the solo as we speak, i'll have it sometime
this weekend probably. The chorus is as close as i can get
it for now, it sounds right but it feels wrong if that makes
any sense at all.
Standard Tuning

Notation:
PM-Palm Mute
AH-Artificial Harmonic

Intro/Verse Riff

This whole riff is Palm Muted except for the harmonic at the end.
The .. after the 7 and 5 mean i didn't bother to count how many times
to play that note, just play along with the music! Also the number
of A5 chords at the beginning vary sometimes.

Riff 3

Again, this riff is also entirely palm muted. Not too sure about this one either.
