Okay, this is my first tab and I noticed no tabs for this song include the second
 This tab is 100% correct.  The tuning is in Dropped-C, low to high: C,G,C,F,A,D.  There are
a few alterations in the outro so be patient.  You have to listen to the song yourself 
hear when guitar 2 plays what in timing with guitar 1.  Enjoy!

Tab key:

x=dead note
h=hammer-on
p=pull-off
fb=full bend
r=release
PH=pinch or artificial harmonic
P.M.<--->=palm mute
