Play Riff G with Fill 4 a total of two times
*The Riffs E, F and G + the Fills are actually played on the strings A, D
and G (yep VERY high up on the guitar neck indeed), which is causing a
special sound. When played as written above, it will sound a bit more
noisy. ( ie. so that Fill 4 as an example will start with the chord):
