I think the first is used in the first verse only, and the second is used in both the latter verses All the choruses are different, and follow no one pattern (Except for the fact that it is a 12-bar in E), so I have given two examples, which can then be used for further improvisation Chorus Riff Example 1 G|-----------------|-----------|----------------| D|-----------------|-----4-5-6-|-7--------------| A|-----5-----------|--7--------|----4--5--4-5-6-| E|-5h7---5-7-5-3-0-|-----------|----------------| G|---------------|-----------------|-------------|---------------| D|---------5-6---|-------------5-6-|-7--7--5-----|---------------| A|-7--7--7-----7-|-7--7--7-7-7-----|---------7-5-|---4--5--4-5-6-| E|---------------|-----------------|-------------|-5-------------| G|---------------|---------------|-------------|---------------| D|---------5-6---|-------5-6-7-8-|-9--9--------|---------------| A|-7--7--7-----7-|-7--7----------|-------6-7-8-|---4--5--4-5-6-| E|---------------|---------------|-------------|-5-------------| G|-----------------|--------------| D|-----6-6-7-7-8-8-|-9-9-------5--| A|-7-7-------------|------9--7----| E|-----------------|--------------| Example 2 G|-----------------|-----------|--------------|---------------| D|-----------------|-----4-5-6-|-7--5--4------|---------5-6---| A|-----5-----------|--7--------|--------------|-7--7--7-----7-| E|-5h7---5-7-5-3-0-|-----------|----------5-5-|---------------| G|-----------------|-------------|---------------| D|-------------5-6-|-7--7--------|---------------| A|-7--7--7-7-7-----|---------4-5-|---4--5--4-5-6-| E|-----------------|-------5-----|-5-------------| G|----------------|---------------|-------------|---------------| D|---------5-6----|-------6-5-7-8-|-9--9--------|---------------| A|-7--7--7------7-|-7--7----------|-------9-7-5-|---4--5--4-5-6-| E|----------------|---------------|-------------|-5-------------| G|-----------------|--------------| D|-----6-6-7-7-8-8-|-9-9-------5--| A|-7-7-------------|------9--7----| E|-----------------|--------------| The Solo At the end of the second chorus, instead of the last bar, play G|-------------------|-------------------| D|-9-----------------|-------------------| (This is all in triplets) A|-------------------|-x--2--3--4--5--6--| E|----2--3--4--5--6--|-------------------| Solo bass riff G|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D|-----------------|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-----------------|-----------------| A|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-----7-------7---|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-7-7---5-7-7---5-| E|-----7-------7---|-----------------|-----7-------7---|-----7-------7---| G|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-----------------|-----------------| A|-----7-------7---|-----7-------7---|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-7-7---5-7-7---5-| E|-----------------|-----------------|-----7-------7---|-----7-------7---| G|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D|-9-9---7-9-9---7-|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-----------------|-----------------| A|-----9-------9---|-----7-------7---|-7-7---5-7-7---5-|-------------4-5-| E|-----------------|-----------------|-----7-------7---|-7-7-7-7-7-7-----| That's about everything.
