So here I'm going to try and tab it properly for you.
Main riff;
(Lots of palm and finger muting. Most of you will be able to do this naturally anyway but I've tried to signify muted strums by the letter m above them. The slash "/" symbol means repeat the previous chord).

That's basically all the tools you need.
Summary; Mostly normal bar chords but the first chord is one of Eirik's favourites from The Girl From Back Then; E shape with 5th and 6th string fingering reversed.
