10/23/2024 - after seeing clips of Damian playing this I have made some minor adjustments to the tabs to be
more accurate.
TUNING: DROP D
CAPO ON FIRST FRET IS NEEDED FOR INTRO AND OUTRO PARTS, NOT FOR REST OF SONG.

at 1:29 - 2:57 its the exact same riff with one little extra flare in every fourth bar as such:

At 2:57 onward it gets switched up quite a bit, and it's quite hard to hear but I believe I got it down.
below are the 4 different riffs. Play these in order starting at 2:57.
