Here's the intro/verse riff

On this riff, it's a little hard to play 4th string 7th fret if you bar
the 9th fret like a D chord (cause, you would need to bar it with your
middle finger, and THAT'S REALLY HARD!!!).
Instead, I recommend this fingering:
index finger on 4th string 7th fret
Middle finger on 3rd string 9th fret
Ring finger on 2nd string 10tth fret
Position#1
e---------
b-10--(12)--
g--9------
d--7------
and stretch your pinky to reach the 2nd string 12th fret the first time.
The SECOND TIME YOU PLAY 2nd string 12th fret, THEN bar your index finger
like a D chord on 9th fret:
like this:
Position#2
pinky
v
e----9------
b--(10)-12--
g----9------
And then back to Position#1, and play the notes.
I don't know the chord part that plays over the riff, so if anybody does,
please submit it!
Keep playing the riff until PreChorus

Saving the best for last, here's the Solo
During the first few bends at 16th fret, what you do is bend to the 18th
fret,
and then hit that note (the one bended at 18th fret) twice more before
bending
back to the 16th fret.
