Usedown strokes thouugh out this part to create a sense of urgency. Bounce your
fretting hand om the strings, rather
than holding it tight into them for the palm muting.

alternte pick the semiquaver rythms, but use down strokes for the rest.Again use
your fretting hand for the palm mutting. Dont worry about hiting the top note of the 
top note on the E chords excatly as written, as these are probaly not intentional.

Use alternate picking.Youll need your forth finger to reach the A in the second beat
in bar 2.

This is 100% correct unless i have made a mistake
