The song rotates around those riffs. If you listen to it you should easily be 
able to find the proper rhythm, as well as when to play each part. I wont lie 
to you, the song was very easy to transcribe, it took me about 15 minutes to 
write the entire tab, i dont think its very difficult. LISTEN TO IT
