0:31 > 0:33
e:-----------------------------
b:-----------------------------
g:-----------------------------
d:-----------------------------
a:-----------------------------
e:-12--- slide down fretboard with finger whilst still hiting the string and palm-muting

riff 1
0:33 > 0:44
e:-0---1---3---1---------------
b:-0---1---3---1----------------
g:-1---2---4---2----------------
d:-2---3---5---3----------------
a:-2---3---5---3----------------
e:-0---1---3---1---------------- 
these chords are played, and im sure you can figure out the rhythm and timing yourself

riff 2
0:44 > 1:07
e:-12-10-12-10-8-7-8-5-4-5-4-2-0-0---1---3---1
b:-------------------------------0---1---3---1
g:-------------------------------1---2---4---2
d:-------------------------------2---3---5---3
a:-------------------------------2---3---5---3
e:-------------------------------0---1---3---1
the notes played on the e string are played many times rapidly so you
will have to do some working out, same with the chords

riff 3
1:07 > 1:14
e:-5---3---1---0-------------------
b:-5---3---1---0-------------------
g:-4---4---2---1-------------------
d:-7---5---3---2-------------------
a:-7---5---3---2-------------------
e:-5---3---1---0-------------------
haha, again, you will need to work out timing and rythem yourself, but its not hard!

back to riff 1 
1:14 > 1:22
then riff 2
1:22 > 1:44
then riff 3
