The verse is just the power chord pattern(A, A, C, D, A) without the riff. So listen to
record for the timing. So from now on, the part with the power chords but no riff is

This is played behind the "growing old...passing life..looking through" part, the chords
follow the lyrics.

Then on "skies" he does RIFF 1 again once, then the next verse. Just listen to the 
for timing.
