The song is played:

#1  x4

#2  x1

#1  x9

#3  x1

#1  x4

#3  x1

#1  x2

#3  x1

and repetition of the part between the asterisks till fade.
A bit into the song, another guitar joins riff #1 with chords in this
progression:

x0023x

x02230

022000

x02230


Note: Riff #1 doesn't stay the same throughout the song. It's varied mainly
by some embellishments on the higher e-string like

e |---------0h3r0-------
B |-----3---------3-1r0-
G |---2---2-------------   etc...
D |-0-------------------
A |---------------------
E |---------------------

but I don't bother with these. There's plenty of room for improvisations
anyway, as the song is, to say the least, quite repetitive.
