This is a easy song of frogstomp. It's really just one riff played fast and
slow.

Riff 2 - this one is played really quickly and you have to
really listen close to hear the deviations in the chords.
Don't necessarily try and strun each of these chords, try
and hammer SOME of the non-open ones (222xxx and 333xxx):
E--------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------------|
D---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2--3---| x 3
A---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2--3---|
D---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2--3---|
then...
E----------------------------------5-5-|
B----------------------------------5-5-|
G----------------------------------5-5-|
D---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2--5-5-|
A---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2------|
D---2--0--2--0--2-----0--2---0--2------|

D--2-0-2-0-2-3-0-2--0-2-0-2-3-0---|
Riff 5 is Riff 3 with an addition on the high string, I dont know
how this can be played, but somehow it happens:
E--2~------------------3--0-----|
B-------------------------------|
G-------------------------------| ~ = trill (play repeatedly)
D--12-----12---12-12---12-------|
A--12-----12---12-12---12-------|
D--0--0-0-0--0-0--0--0-0--0-0---|
