scale (5th fret), and easy to play once you get used to play the octave riffs. For the main octave riff, I always use my thumb for the lower strings of the first 4 notes and play 5th note and octave slides with my index finger and pinky: --------------------------| -----------8--------------| ------5-7----7/9\7\5-7----| -7-7-------5-----------7--| ------3-5----5/7\5\3-5----| -5-5-------------------5--| T T T T T I fret 6th and 5th string like so, but you'll find the most comfortable fingering position for yourself after a few runs through the song. This is just the fingering I use. Furthermore, fret 6th (low E) string with your thumb throughout the entire song. You can improvise on minor scales yourself and stretch the song to 5-10 minutes. Hope you enjoyed:-)
