RIFF 6:

Third verse:

I've included rhythm on this part, because otherwise this would look very
ugly and very confusing. However, it's _extremely_ easy to play.

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A 3-------------------------------|
E --------------------------------|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A (rest)--------------------------|
E --------------------------------|

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A (rest)--------------------------|
E --------------------------------|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A (rest)--------------------------|
E ------------------------------3-|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A 3---------------5---------------|
E --------------5---------------3-|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A 3-------------------------------|
E ------------------------------3-|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A 3---------------5---------------|
E --------------5---------------3-|

  1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 
G --------------------------------|
D --------------------------------|
A 3-----------------------3---2---|
E --------------------------------|

This is, for the most part, how the song goes. Now I'll list the order all
this stuff appears in, followed by the one discrepancy:

Riff 1 (repeated a bunch of times)
Riff 2
Riff 3
Riff 4
Riff 1 (again, repeated)
Riff 2 
Riff 3
Riff 4
Riff 5
Riff 6
Riff 3
Riff 4

Next you play Riff 5 during the second guitar solo, except this time the
last bar is different:

G ---------|---------|---------|---------|
D ------4-5|---------|------4-5|---------|
A 7-7-7----|5-5-5---5|7-7-7----|5-5-5---5|
E ---------|------7--|---------|------7--|

G ---------|------7----|-------------|
D ------4-5|-----------|------5-4---4|
A 7-7-7----|5-5-5---5-5|5-5-5-----7--|
E ---------|-----------|-------------|

Then repeat riff 4 during the outro.

Right after the last time you play riff 4, end the song by playing your
open E string.
