[Main Riffs]
Riff 1 is the same with a different F#m/E at start of 2nd measure.
The Am/E (Am) is the quick slide or bend to the A note (if playing only 2 strings) or shown
here as a slide to Am.
* below = Double-time (repeat). Messes up the formatting to try to squish another chord in.
Basically, all chords shown are downstrokes on 8 counts/measure, where there's an astericks
below fit in a quick follow-up upstroke (usually only hitting the E and A strings). At the
end of Riffs 1a-c, do this on the last 0-11 (or use 0-x) on E and A strings to make the record
skipping sound, before connecting to a similar pass.
