Pre-chorus ("feel the emptiness inSIDEEEE"). There might be some pinch
harmonics in use here on some of those fret 7 notes, I can't quite tell.

Post-chorus riff 1. This is a single bar of 6/4. Listen to the song to get
rhythm, it's pretty unusual.

Post-chorus riff 2 (2:56). This is just two bars of 4/4, played twice.

Verse riff (3:26), x4. And here we evidence the bane of tablature, i.e.
the inability to tab out rhythm easily. I tried to help it by placing
the subdivions of the beat above the staff. The only difference between
the two measures is the notes of the last beat of each.
