at the end of the night

* Note: Play these notes soft and faster after sweeping down.
They are quiet and quick but are there, and I believe
played by another guitar, but it sounds alright with
them in.
Also - riffs will be referred to as "R".
The song is fairly easy, it's two riffs the entire thing.
