The whole song is basically one riff:
e|---------------| B|---------------| G|---------------| D|---------------| A|----0-2--------| E|--3-----3-0----|
What I like to do is make it more exciting by adding more drama so when he gets
to the part where he says they gonna take you down by the riverside I add
e|----------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------| A|----0-2-------x-x--x-x-----0-2-------x-x--x-x-| E|--3-----3-0---x-x--x-x---3-----3-0---x-x--x-x-|
then to add more suspense I throw in an E5 chord
e|----------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------| A|----0-2-------2-2--2-2-----0-2-------2-2--2-2-| E|--3-----3-0---0-0--0-0---3-----3-0---0-0--0-0-|
