Ok, I found this song a little hard to tab and I hope I got it right.
The intro sounds right but I think I got it wrong and you can go ahead
find your own way of playing this.

And ofcouse, this is all in order.

Intro:
- Guitar 1: x4 then:
e|---------------------------------------------|-----|
B|---------------------------------------------|-----|
G|-----11-11/12-12/11-11-----11-11/12-12/11-11-|-11~-|
D|-9-9--x--x--x--x--x--x-5-5--x--x--x--x--x--x-|--x--|
A|-9-9--9--9/10-10/-9--9-5-5--9--9/10-10/-9--9-|--9~-|
E|-7-7-------------------3-3-------------------|-----|
and I know that this.....^ ^ part is kinda weird to do but I suggest you play:

D|-------|
A|-10-10-| instead. It's easier though.
E|-10-10-|

or I found another way that is so much easier:

It might be wrong but I tried
Solo: (1:41) (All bends up 1/4) - "the timing may be off
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-9/10/11--11-11-9--7-6-7----7-9-11-12-(11)-12-14b-12-11----9-9-9-11b-11---11-11-11---|
D|--------------------------9-----------------------------9---------------9----------9-|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Solo (continued):
e|--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------|
G|-11-11---11-11-11b-9-11-12b-11-9-9-7~-|
D|-------9------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|

Outro: (1:58)
I guess just one guitar plays and it repeats:
e|------------------|-------------|
B|------------------|-16-16-16-16-|
G|-9-11~/12-14-11b~-|-15-15-15-15-|ITS HARD TO HEAR BUT IT'S ALL I COULD MAKE OF IT.
D|------------------|-------------|
A|------------------|-------------|
E|------------------|-------------|

"Instead I'm slowly going my way
and if I don't reach the top,
I still got lots right here I appreciate"
