Song ends on 4th cycle of Riff 2.
Notes: The riff is easier to play than diagram.
I think all the essential elements are tabbed here.
The first position 6-string F chord is the root of the riff.
Riff 1 Sounds like its all from the first fret.
Riff 2 includes the slide up to the 6th fret barred Bb position.
Sounds like guitar riff alternately uses (double notes).
Riff 3 Sounds like all single notes, the bass sounds the Bb note
at the recurring change to Bb.
This is one of the best songs on the album ((PALAIS)).
