This riff Ed plays isnt too audible but its there.
 
<note: "having seen the band play the song live and listening to the track
I am sure that instead of the above ed actually plays the G and B strings at
the nut i.e. to the left of the first fret. this produces that high pitched
sound." <-- comment from Doug Stuart <stuart@tinet.ie>
