The clean interlude is in a 7/8 time signature, except for the last time when it goes to 4/4 so you need 
to play the rest of the chord to complete the bar.  


Riff E 
                                               Play this on the last time

The riff behind Dave's solo is basically what you see above minus the higher notes at  
the beginning. In their place just let the open Db and Ab strings ring out. 

    the harmony comes in like this (same ending as Riff F) 
 D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
 A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
 F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
 C#|---------------2-3-2---5--3-5-3--2-3--2-3-2-----2--------------------------|

 C#|--0---0-----------------------------------------------------------------------| 


                                          First ending. After a few times around with this  
                                          riff, leave out the open notes and tremolo pick your 
                                          way through it.
