This song is played in E flat standard, or a half step down, but all the strings will be
in 4/40...just a heads up.
This first part is all bass chugging from what it sounds, except for the guitar lines.
you want to chug it out with the bass, go for it. I do it sometimes.

Then play it again a few more times without the big pauses. Ends with:

The main riff is the exact same thing above this except the guitar chugs on zero in
each segment. So to make this effect, I would just play a muted open E after each part like
the 3s4s3.Play twice.
