The main riff is played in E and D. In the E-part there are some hammer-on's...
(4/4) | E5 E5 E5 . | D5 . E5 . | => a "." (1/4th note) is a rest, you have to ring out the chord.
The used chords:
(there guitarist doesn't use a lot of basstones!)
MI LA RE SOL SI MI
E5: X X 9 9 9 X => of course you can use the normal E-chord, but then the "funky effect" will be gone!
D5: X X 7 7 7 X => same as the E5 chord!
LA X 0 2 2 X X
LA5 5 7 7 6 X X
SI5 7 9 9 8 X X
NC: X X X X X X => you play no chords!
The main riff (riff 1) goes like this:
h = hammer-on

e:-------------|-----|
B:--9h10-10-11-|-7-9-|
G:--9--9--9--9-|-7-9-|
D:--9h11-11-11-|-7-9-|
A:-------------|-----|
E:-------------|-----|
In the bridge there is a kind of "violent" guitarplaying with (I think) a chord change between B5 and A5,
I use a slide kind of way to make a violent and chaotic kind of sound.
The rythm goes like this (but listen to the record to get it right!):
.. .. . . .. => each "." is a 1/8th note!
(4/4) | B5 B5 A5 B5 . | but... there are two endings in the bridge, where the last chord is not a B5 but an A5!
The riff of the bridge (riff 2) goes like this:
s = slide

e:----------|
B:----------|
G:--8-8-6s8-|
D:--9-9-7s9-|
A:--9-9-7s9-|
E:--7-7-5s7-|
The last riff is in the rappart. The guitarist plays the E5 chords with an extra E and B on the 12th fret. You
only play the high tones of this chord.
MI LA RE SOL SI MI
The chord in riff 3 looks like this: X X X 9 12 12
