.  - palm mute                          /  - slide up to                       

\  - slide down to                      ~  - vibrato                            

"  - tremelo picking                    () - ghost note
p  - pull off                           h  - hammer-on 


* - I went through this rather quickly, and wasn't super anal about
    little things in the song.  I'll make an update (if needed) when
    I get more freetime, but in the meantime, this is a very good
    interpretation of the song

* - Since this song is so long (over 10 minutes), I wrote next to the riff
    approximately what time on my CD player that that Riff starts at.
    (Example: Riff A starts at 0 minutes and 0 seconds into the song
     and ends at 0 minutes and 36 seconds into the song.  Riff B starts at
     0 minutes and 36 seconds into song and ends 0 minutes and 55 seconds
     into the song)
