This part really isn't as complicated as some people may think.

  _________________________________________________________________
 |**The ^'s over some of the notes indicate accented *upstrokes  **|
 |**between palm-muted notes. These accented notes are all that  **|
 |**other tabs of this song included (which did not include the  **|
 |**palm-muted notes between them). When you slow it down to half**|
 |**speed, you are able to hear that there is a note played for  **|
 |**        every sixteenth value within in this riff            **|
