I've seen a lot of tabs get this wrong, and it was frustrating me, so I just threw 
this together quick... but it is 100% accurate. I've performed it several times this exact way.
Enjoy (:

Tuning: Drop D (Half step-down also, but is optional, that's how its played though)
 
This song can be played just fine with just the rhythm part, which is what I have 
tabbed out, if you are looking for the lead part (Vince's Part), you won't find that here, sorry. 

Jesse's part (Acoustic Guitar) Rhythm 

Chord Changes are easy, figure them out. Listen to the song.

For the Bridge, Jesse's guitar part stops, but you can just palm mute and play the 
open strings to simulate Vince's part and to keep the beat.
