The main guitar in this song is in Open D6 Tuning which means the six guitar strings,
lowest pitch to highest, should be tuned like this: D A D F♯ B D.
So take your Low E and High E then drop them a whole step. After that drop your G a half step.
This song has some beautiful sounding guitar parts so I decided to do a tab for it.
Be prepared to use your thumb to play some of these chords though.
On the Intro and the Bridge I didn't notate the rhythm, just the chords. So listen
to the song for that.
OK so here we go!

The end is Main Guitar Parts one and two, but the last chord goes like this.
OK from that you should be able to figure out how it goes.
Enjoy!
EDIT: Thanks to hendrixfreak93 for the correction on the tuning, it should be in
Open D6, not Open D.
