During Verse 1, this is the guitar part, on what may be a 12-stringIt is played rather fast with short pauses in between each repetitione|-------|B|-----0-|G|---2---| x64D|-2-----|A|-------|E|-------|

CHORUS 1
Only 1 guitar to play on this one, so it's pretty self explanatorye|-------------------- e|-------------|B|-------------------- B|-------------|G|-------------------- G|-------------|D|-9~9-------7-9-9-7~- D|-9~9-----2~~-|A|-9~9-------7-------- x7 A|-9~9-----2~~-|E|-7~7-3b4.5-5-------- E|-7~7-2b3-0~~-|

Again, on guitar throughout the verse:e|-------|B|-----0-|G|---2---| x64D|-2-----|A|-------|E|-------|

CHORUS 2, GUITAR SOLO, and CHORUS 3 (OUTRO)
These few parts are bundled together, but it is rather simple.The main chorus riff is repeated until the outro which fades out:e|--------------------|B|--------------------|G|--------------------|D|-9~9-------7-9-9-7~-|A|-9~9-------7--------|E|-7~7-3b4.5-5--------|
After 7 repetitions, the guitar solo begins, with the chorus riff still going:

For the final 6 cycles, push the vibrato bar down, as can be heard in the songWhen you reach the bends, release the vibratoe|-------------------------------------15b17-15b17r15-14-14~-|B|-----------------------------------------------------------|G|-19p16h19p16h19p16h19p16h19p16h19p16-----------------------|D|-----------------------------------------------------------|A|-----------------------------------------------------------|E|-----------------------------------------------------------|
