this is what i've figured out for the opening riffs for simple and it
sounds pretty darn close
E|------------------------------------------------------
B|------------------------------------------------------
G|------------------------------------------------------
D|------------------------------------------------------
A|---------7--------5--0--7--0-----------5--------------
E|---0--0-----5--7--------------0--5--7-----------------
2nd time play D|--5-- at the end instead of A|--5--
