Back into the Main Riff, build up the last notes of the Main Riff by repeating
them, then play this little Ending Riff:

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------8---------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----(b9)---7-------------------------------7---(b9)7---------------------------|
D|-------------7/10-9\-5-----5-----5-7-7(b9)--(b9)----(b9)------------------------|

E|--8----7-------------------------------------------------------------------|

B|-----------8-------------------------------|o-----------------------------o|                     
G|----(b9)---7---------------------------------|---99(b9)7-7--5-55-555-----------|
D|-------------7/10-9\-5-----5-----5---------|o--xxx-x-x--x-xx-xxx----------o|

E|--8----7-----------------------------5--7--|---888-7-7--5-55-555-----------|
                                                    ^^Repeat this bit thrice

G|--99(b9)7-7-99999(b9)----------------------------------------------------------|
D|--xxx-x-x-xxxxxx-----------------------------------------------------------|
A|--xxx-x-x-xxxxxx-----------------------------------------------------------|
E|--888-7-7-99999(b9)----------------------------------------------------------|

Play the Ending Riff again, only this time end it (and the song) with:

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--0------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--4------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--5------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Something like that.
