My first tab, there isnt a bass tab anywhere for this song, so I thought id make one.
The result of boredom and notepad.


rest until bass comes in

G|--------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------| Intro and main riff, a few times until  
A|---------77--------------------5| just before the first verse and end with..
E|-/24-0-0-----0-33--0-55--0-6h7--|

G|---------------|
D|---------------|
A|----77-7p5-----|
E|-0-0-------7-5-|

The album version plays something like the intro bit during the verse, 
the cool as fuck live version sounds like mainly the root notes of the chord changes. Improvise

G|--------------|-----7----------|	
D|--------------|---9---9--------|
A|-/7----5x-----|-7-------7/5----|
E|---------5----|-------------0h5|	etc.

Just before the bridge, play..

G|-/9-7----------
D|------9-7------
A|----------10-7/
E|--------------- then the prechorus bit

G|--------------
D|--------------
A|-33x---55x----
E|----33x---555- a load of times, on the last time 
		 slide to E on the A instead of the A on the E

G|----------------
D|----------------
A|----22-2h5------
E|-33--------55-55 something like that before the solo bit, the 
                   live version he improvises this part
                   then just play a high A over and over until

G|----------------------
D|-5h7-77-5-------------
A|----------7-6-5----5--
E|-----------------8---8

G|-------------------------
D|-------------------77~~x-
A|-0-----------------------
E|-------------------------

then back to the main riff

then 

G|----------------	----------------
D|----------------      ----------------
A|-33x-----55x----      -33----11-------
E|-----33x-----555 then ----33----11-0~~ and then improvise in E or summet

etc
