Key Hints:

For the intro/verse strum close to the nut and use your ring finger to press
down on the two bottom notes in the power chords, like a small
bar & your index finger is on the top notes in the chords.

G2 chorus riff is highly distorted.

Guitar actually places chorus riff during Riff 1 but I arranged the bass for guitar.
