Tuning: C Standard - C F Bb Eb G C
Note: I refer to all note names (letters as though I am in E standard
because I refuse to re-learn my fretboard in C...
Note: Sometimes I feel it necessary to notate rhythm, My conventions are as
follows:
W = whole note/rest R = rest
h = half note/rest
q = quarter note/rest /
e = eighth note/rest o/o = repeat previous bar
s = sixteenth note/rest /
h.= dotted half note
Tied note values are connected with an underscore.
example: s__(s) (a 16th tied to another 16th)
anything under: /--3--\ is a triplet
Double bar lines indicate the end of parts.
Bar lines occur every 4 beats.

Section 3
The first arpeggio is a Dm (16th note triplets) the second is a Db (16ths)
But the Dm is so sloppy on the record that I can't quite nail it down no
matter how much I slow down the recording, so what follows is more of an
educated guess...

Rhythm guitar just follows the chords outlined by those first 4
arpeggios (Am, Em, Bb, Db) until you get to Section 5 where it
switches back to Riff 1.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repeat Riff 1 again
Repeat Riff 3 4X with additional harmonies (shown below)
Lower Harmony: steady 8ths
C.|-0-7-12-0-7-12-0-7-|-12-0-7-12-0-7-12-0-|-7-12-0-7-12-0-7-12-|
G.|-------------------|--------------------|--------------------| Etc...
Eb|-------------------|--------------------|--------------------|
Upper Harmony: steady 8ths (enters half way through)
C.|-17-19-0-17-19-0-17-19-|-0-17-19-0-17-19-0-17-|-19-0-17-19-0-17-19-0-|
G.|-----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|Etc..
Eb|-----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
These are tough to hear for sure and there may be more in there...
Repeat Riff 2 4X
Repeat Riff 2 4X with additional harmonies (shown below)

Also try one or both of these up an octave.
That's all - if anyone has any better suggestions for the harmonies and so
forth, let me know.
Go forth and shred
