Great song with the same basic idea riff throughout with plenty of varied fills,
this is a basic blueprint. As always the devil is in the detail (and the timing)
hope this gives you something to work from! If you like you can make up your own fills,
Am pentatonic works pretty well so have fun with it! cheers
