 Riff 2: 1X
 
 (I think the most convenient way to get from C to G
  in this riff is to use you ring finger to get to
  the 12th fret of the D string.)

 Richard Lloyd's part in the verses still follow the chords
 somewhat.
  
 Anyhow, I'm not Richard Lloyd, so this is the best I can offer:

 Verse 2
 
 Solo/Break
 
 Okay, I didn't want to put this here since
 Tom plays it differently all the time, but
 this is the recorded version and the tab
 would be incomplete without it. Anyway,
 this is the best I can do...
 but who cares really?
