open notes played on the E string during the intro.

little bit

I've tried to notate the strumming pattern that i use dunno
if it'll be of any help but its there
 
V -  downstroke
^ - Upstroke
 
[Verse]
main riff
            ^V^V  V          ^V^ ^V^
G|----------x666--6----------x66-x76--|

tapping part
 
R - right hand tap
T - left hand tap
 
   t r r  t r r  t r r  t r r  t r r
G|------------------------------------|
D|---1515---1515---1515---1515---1515-| they are 11's not ones!!
A|-6-1515-7-1515---1515---1515---1515-|
E|---------------7------6------5------|
 
the bit after that is upto you i suppose just right hand
tap from the 15th frets and go up and down the neck as
far as it sounds right and come back to the 15th
 
for example
G|------------------------------------|
D|-1111111212131315151616141413131111-|
A|-1111111212131315151616141413131111-|
E|------------------------------------|
 
shouldn't take too long to get it sounding right
 
right well thats all you need to play the song i know
there are some other little riffs and weird slides that les
does but i'm still figuring them out
