figure out the rhythms etc yourself. (i.e. play while listening to the record)
shouldn't be that much of a problem, it's a really easy song.

[] riff 1 (0:00-0:16)

semi-clean sound

just keep playing these notes using downstrokes only (sounds best)

B |--------------------------------|  (x2)
G#|--------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
B |--------------------------------|
F#|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

[] riff 2a (0:16-0:24)

heavily distorted

same as before

B |--------------------------------|  (x2)
G#|--------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
B |--------------------------------|

B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

[] riff 2b (0:24-0:32)

same as riff 2a, but the second guitar track goes like this:

B |------------------------------------------------|
G#|------------------------------------------------|
E |19-19-19-17-17-17-17-19-19-19-19-17-17-17-17-19-|
B |------------------------------------------------|
F#|17-17-17-15-15-15-15-17-17-17-17-15-15-15-15-17-|
B |------------------------------------------------|

                                    [ slight bend ]
B |------------------------------------------------|
G#|------------------------------------------------|
E |19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-19-|

F#|17-17-17-15-15-15-15-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-17-|
B |------------------------------------------------|

then riff 2a again

then riff 2b again

riff 3 (0:48-1:24) (tricky bit) (which isn't really all that tricky if you just listen
                                 carefully to the cd and memorise the rhythm)

  [    4/4       ][     5/4           ]
B |------------------------------------| (x8)
G#|------------------------------------|
E |7-7-7---------7-7-7-----------------|
B |------0-0-0-0-------00000000-0-0-12\|
F#|5-5-5-0-0-0-0-5-5-5-00000000-0-0-12\| (slide down)
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-00000000-0-0-12\|

riff 4 (1:24-1:40)

B |--------------------------------|  (x4)
G#|--------------------------------|
E |--------------------------------|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

then riff 3 for another 12 times (1:40-2:35)

riff 5a (2:35-2:46)

B |------------------------------------------------|  (x2)
G#|------------------------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-------7-7-7-------7-7-7-------7-7-7-------|

riff 5b (2:47-2:59)

B |------------------------------------------------|  (x2)
G#|------------------------------------------------|
E |8-8-8-------8-8-8-------8-8-8-------8-8-8-------|
B |------0-0-0-------0-0-0-------0-0-0-------0-0-0-|

B |------0-0-0-------0-0-0-------0-0-0-------0-0-0-|

then the quiet part, (3:00 onward) which I'm too lazy to fully transcribe.
you can just follow the bass by playing octaves. they are:

B |--------------------------------|
G#|--------------------------------|
E |7---5---2-----------------------|  
B |------------10---7---3---0------|
F#|5---3---0-----------------------|
B |------------10---7---3---0------|

you figure out the rhythm etc yourself :D

quiet part lasts until around 4:40, then the "build-up" starts.

just play this every fourth beat: (semi-clean sound)

B |--------------------------------|
G#|--------------------------------|
E |7-------------------------------|
B |--------------------------------|
F#|5-------------------------------|
B |--------------------------------|

then, at 6:02, play:

riff 2a x2
riff 2b x1
riff 2a x2
riff 2b x1

then:

riff 6a (6:34 onwards)

B |----------------------------------------|
G#|----------------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-12/14-14-14-14-14-14-14-|
B |----------------------------------------|
F#|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-10/12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------|

riff 6b

B |------------------------------------------|
G#|------------------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14|
B |------------------------------------------|
F#|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-12-12-10-10-10-10-10-10-10|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------------------------|

riff 6a again

B |----------------------------------------|
G#|----------------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-12/14-14-14-14-14-14-14-|
B |----------------------------------------|
F#|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-10/12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------------|

riff 6c (might be tricky, listen carefully to the rhythm)

B |-------------------------------|
G#|-------------------------------|
E |7-7-7-7-7-7-7------------------|
B |--------------6-6\3-3\2-2/3-3/6|
F#|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-6-6\3-3\2-2/3-3/6|
B |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-6-6\3-3\2-2/3-3/6|

play fig.6 (6a, 6b, 6a, 6c) 3 more times

end with

B |----|
G#|----|
E |----|
B |0---|
F#|0---|
B |0---|

enjoy and good luck!

Pretty accurate for the most part except during the slide from the 12th fret, one guitar slides up while the other guitar slides down from the first fret. It creates an eerie harmony
