This is doubled by a second riff:

-------------------------------------------------------11/12-12-12--
-------------------------------------------------------11/12-12-12--

--x-x-x-x-x-x-5-x-7---x-x---x-5h7--x-x-x-x-x-x-5-x-7----------------

  1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &  1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1   3  &  4  &

There's a variation on the main riff now and then, and it goes:
