INTRO:

Guitar1, (clean)

|-A--Em--G-| (the 3rd time G is played 320033)

The fills are below:

|----------------2h3-3/5-5/7-5-|
|-2h3/5/7hb\-------------------|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|
|------------------------------|

Then comes:

Guitar2, (distorted)

|---------------------------------------------|
|-2-2--2---2-0-2-2---2-2-2----2-2-2---2-2--2--|
|-2-2--4p2-2-0-2-2---2-2-4p2--2-2-2---2-2--2--|
|-2-2--2---2-0-2-2---2-2-2----2-2-2---2-2--2--|
|-0-0--0---0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0--0-0-0---0-0--0--|
|---------------------------------------------|

Then both guitars play G then D/F#,
these can be played in two different ways either as
open chords: G |320033|, D/F# |200232| or as
barre chords: G |355233|, D/F# |254232|.

The majority of the song revolves around A, G, and D/F#.

Guitar2 continues playing this progression:

|--A----G--D/F#--A----G--A----G--|

During the beginning of this, Guitar1 plays a little solo:

|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|-6~---6-6hbhr6h7r6---------------------------------|
|-----9------------7/(14)---------12-11-12-11-------|
|-------------------------*12hbhr-------------*12~--|
|---------------------------------------------------|
^ artificial harmonic

And where the progression above holds on the G chord twice there
is a G note played on the 5th fret of the D string in unison.

Guitar2 then repeatly plays Riff1 until the quiet part:

Riff1:

|-A--G--D/F#-|

Under the progression there is a little riff:

|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------5-5-4~---------------5-5-4~--------------------|
|---------4-5-7----------------4-5-7----------4-5-4-5-4h5p5----|
|-5~--5-7--------------5~--5-7------------------------------5--|

Now when Riff1 stops on the D/F# chord, slide up the F# note
on the 2nd fret of the low-E string to a G note on the 3rd
fret of the same string while partially muting the other strings.

Riff1 continues and this solo is played over it:

|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------10~--8h10p8---8/14~---|
|-10~------------------------------9-11~--------------11--------|
|-----11h12-11-9-11-11h12p11p9----------------------------------|
|------------------------------12-------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|

|---------------------------------------------------------|
|--16hbhr-14*14hb~~--17fbfr-(18)--------------------------|
|----------------------------^-mute with another finger---|
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------|

Now the quiet part comes in. It's just the A, G, D/F# chords
played over, but arpeggiated with certain notes left out.
A G A G A G D/F# G
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ ^--distortion comes back

- - - - - - -

Now Guitar2 starts playing Riff1 again.
These fills are also played over it:

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--12p11p9-11p9--------------------------/11--12--14~~---|
|--------------10h12--10-9h10p9~-------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------5-5-4~---------------5-5-4~--------------------|
|---------4-5-7----------------4-5-7----------4-5-4-5-4h5p5----|
|-5~--5-7--------------5~--5-7------------------------------5--|

Riff1 ends on A and the song slows down again playing
this Riff2:

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-------0-----0----------------------------0-----0-------|
|-----9-----0--------11-12-11-9-11-9-----9-----0---------|
|--10-----9----------0--0--0--0-0--0--10-----9-----------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
^-------- Riff2 repeats ------^

And this solo comes during Riff2:

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------19fb------|
|--------------------------------16fbfr-14~~--------X\---|
|-5~~--7~~~----5-5-/9-/11-/14~----------------------X\---|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--18h19r18h19r18r16h18r16h18r16--X\---------------------|
|---------------------------------X\---------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|

The X\'s are pick slides. The first pick slide should be fast and
over the pickups on the indicated strings, this should give a
similiar sound. The second is a tad bit slower well in front of
the lead pickup.

Riff2 then continues with distortion, and the song ends on an A chord.
