Ending Continued A  x8 , on the 4th and 8th times the riff changes to B
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------5/65------------------8-6h8-------------------------------------------------------------------

------7------------7---------7-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--5------------------------5---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if you are still confused, I labeled the first Ending Continued A, and the second Ending Continued B, the order goes AAABAAAB.  That should be simple enough, and this concludes my tab, hope you enjoy!
