Tele,

Question about the tab. For the first line of the verse you have Riff 1 above Riff2 both over the words "I was" and then Riff2 over the "born"

What exactly does that mean, play Riff1, then Riff2, then the Riff2, then Riff 1 twice, then Riff 2.

"It's all about stickin it to the man!"
It's a long way to the top if you want to rock n roll!

I should have spaced it better, I suck at writing out tab.
You play riff 1, riff 2 then riff 1 again and then the vocals start out on riff 2 the second time you play it
