Play the intro/main riff during the whole song, and only stop playing it when you play the solo or the chorus. Also, if you think the main riff is wrong, you're not playing it right. this way (if your timing is right) it matches up perfectly with the song - try playing along to perfect it. i just corrected it, the old version had notes i dont know what i was thinking when i put them there. sorry about the horrible inaccuracy before, i mustve been tired or something when i recopied it off my paper or something.its right now though.



I'm not 100% sure about the solo, corrections welcome. my email address is nick_ditommaso@hotmail.com .
