Riff K 
Again, only light palm muting 
On the last line of this riff at the very end, use your middle finger to  
play the 5th fret on the D string, your index finger to play the 4th  
fret on the D string, your pinkie to play the 7th fret on the A string,  
and you middle finger again to play the fifth fret on the A string.  You  
will be in a good position to continue on into the next riff.
