((I altered it a bit))

tuning: drop D

/ = slide up
~ = vibrato
()= bend up/bend down - you can figure out which

Intro (clean, that is, no distortion - amazing isn't it?)

Fill (this is played in the middle of the third time
      the main riff is played)

|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|
|--3(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(4)-(3)--|

|--------------------------------|

when you play this you're just bending the fourth note
up to the fifth and then back down again - sorry for
my poor notation, I'm not sure how to properly tab that


then the last riff

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
whether or not this part is palm muted
I can't figure out.  sounds good both
