Then a fill (sounds like basically just strumming on muted strings):

E------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then intro riff

Then fade out into the fill and let the last note ring


Ending:

This is optional. However, you can hear that this is part of the actual song.

At the ending, while the last note is ringing, start to de-tune
your low E string until it is about one octave down from normal
low E. When it is that low continue to strum it until the song
is over.

And that's it! Please rate and comment!
