Hence, I would appreciate it greatly if anybody could fill in the gaps. Enjoy!

Although the chords for the links between the verses are different, I think the riff is played over these as well. It's kind of hard to tell what the guitar is doing after the intro, since it disappears in the mix. ............. (Let's begin)
