Song ends on 4th cycle of Riff 2.

Notes: The riff is easier to play than diagram. 
       I think all the essential elements are tabbed here.
       The first position 6-string F chord is the root of the riff.
       Riff 1 Sounds like its all from the first fret. 
       Riff 2 includes the slide up to the 6th fret barred Bb position.
              Sounds like guitar riff alternately uses (double notes).
       Riff 3 Sounds like all single notes, the bass sounds the Bb note 
             at the recurring change to Bb.

This is one of the best songs on the album ((PALAIS)).
