LEGEND:
r = rest
NOTE: This song features only a single riff repeated throughout:

Rather than copy and paste that same riff over and over, I've instead broken it
down into how many times to play it per section. Empty bars have been provided
for times when the bass rests, to help you keep track of when to come back in.
