================================================
Riff:
I think it is played on a 12 string to give that sound
d ---------3-------------------3--------5-4- -5-4-
a 0--0-3-5---5-3-0----0--0-3-5---5-3-0--5-5- or -0-0-
d 0----------------3/-0---------------------
and let the low d ring fairly indiscriminately, fattens it up
/ means bend
Octave version - its full fat sound but harder to play:
g -----5-7-10-7-5-----------5-7-10-7-5----12-11-
d ----------------------------------------------
a 0--0-3-5--8-5-3--0------0-3-5--8-5-3--0-10-9--
d 0--0--------------3/-0--0-------------0-------
both d strings can ring
