Learn Iron Maidens Run to the Hills Guitar Riffs

This is part one of a 2 part lesson which covers all the guitar riffs in Run to the Hills. I was brought up on Maiden and when I bought my first guitar (aged just 11) I desperately tried to learn all their tracks. If only the internet had been round in those days to help.
