BASS: I think the bass plays the same the guitar plays, but
its volume is so low I can hardly hear it.

A [ ---5--5--5---5--5-5---5--5--5----8--8--8---7--7--7---------

E -----------------------------------------------------8----]
Riff D:
For the guitar riffD is the same as riffB, but using distortion
and a different rythm (listen to the song for the rythm).
BASS:
