from now on I write the chords resulting from the bass and guitar part together.
Bass plays G A Bb C, guitar keeps arpeggiating on Gm 3553xx (or 3103xx?).

in the instrumental part, "Gm" means to alternate Gm and Gsus4, while
"Eb" ... .. ... Eb ... Eb6.
Gsus4 is 355533, Eb6 is x65543.
playing the song with a capo on the 3rd fret makes it easier.
the guitar riff is essentially made of two slighly different repeating figures:
|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---3-----3-.| over Gm
|.--------------------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---------3-.| over Eb and Cm
|.------------5-------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
the only relevant variation, played over the F chord:
|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|--5-3-2----5-3-2------|
|--------5--------5-3--|
|----------------------|
