I don't know if this tab is perfectly accurate... but I am lazy and can't be bothered
You'll get the general idea though and what ever stuff-ups there are you can correct
easily if you listen to the song.
Please rate!

I doubt it's right but it's something along those lines.
It's based around a G chord if that helps (Notes in G scale: G A B C D E F# G)

The harmonic is played when you let the note ring and rest your finger over the fret
12 frets up (15th fret). If that makes sense.

Repeat chorus x1 then
Guitar II continues playing chorus chords, guitar I play what guitar II did during the bridge.
Then guitar II

Again I doubt it is exact but it’s near enough.
