That Main Riff:

-----------------5------
-----3---5\3---3--------

------------------------

The riff is backed by:

--3--3-3--3-3--3-3--3----3----

The Bass Line:

-3--3-3--3-3--3-3--5/7--5\3---

Before the Chorus the two chords are:

----------

Behind the GDFC part of the chorus:

-0-0-0-0-----11----11----14----14------9----9---
----------12----------15------------10---10-----

Those leads are the same after the chorus:

G ---------------------------4-

e ---------------------------5\7-7br-
B -6\8-8-8--6\8-8-8--6\8-8-8---------

repeat both

Then the bridge (consume my love...):

C and G

Then the soon I find myself alone part:

D A C G

Then the outro:

e -------------------------------------------------------------------------
B -8-8---\12--8-8---\12--13\12-12---8-8---\12--12---15\12-12--13\12--13\12-
G -0---0------0---0-----------------0---0---------0-0-----0--------0-------

The building at the end is taking an open G chord and escalating it up
the neck one fret at a time up to the octave.
