Most, of the song is improvised riffing, mainly working with the 10th and 12th frets on the A 
and D strings, and the 14th fret on the D string.  There is a slide up between the words 'midnight' and 
'searching' at the end of each verse.  After each of these slides, there is a distinct riff (Key Riff) 
that uses the same strings as the ones used for the improvised riffing.

[End of Verse 1]
