Those two riffs before they are played really clear
in the song kind of variate, but it's the same notes
so you shouldn't have much trouble finding them.

During the final riffs the second guitar plays stuff 
like this
e|---------------|
B|---------------|
G|-4h5-7p5-4h5p4-|
A|---------------|
D|---------------|
E|---------------|
 
 and this
e|---------|
B|---------|
G|-4-5/7-5-|
A|---------|
D|---------|
E|---------|

That's it, just PM me if you have any corrections that you think I should know about.
