The chords for the main riff are as follows. As to what order you actually
pick the notes, it's hard to tell because there are lots of notes ringing
at once. What I _can_ hear is that each note on the G string is slid down
to the next one. Below right is rougly how I play it...

It's all the same, only the names will change.
Another town, where the faces are so cold.
