Play this riff seven times, then rest for eight measures while the piano plays. There's a slide on the E string during the piano part, from open to 7th fret. (It is 4 measures into the piano part) [Bridge] ("Reach behind they could hardly find their spines") Thanks to emerica10570 for corrections on this part. When I first made this tab, I thought all the intervals were octaves, but it turns out this part uses major 10ths and 11ths instead of octaves.

Then play the main riff 5 more times. At the 5th time, the drums stop playing, and the band slows down and fades out. / Slide Up \ Slide Down ==================================================================
