First tab. My bid to add more quality PtW tabs from "You Come Before You."
I plea with others to follow suit (with an accurate version of "Pleasant Bullet" for starters).

  Riff 1, ending with:
C |--1~----5~----|
G |--1~----5~----|
C |--1~----5~----|

  It's at this point when the guitars go bat****, and I couldn't even begin to fathom translating it.
  You can mess around with the high end of the neck, or cop out and play the bass part:
  
  (1:52)
C |--00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1--|
G |--00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1--|
C |--00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1-00--1--|
  pm ..  . ..  . ..  . ..  . ..  . ..  . ..  . ..  .

  Then play Riff 2, ending with:
C |--1-1-0-1-1--||
G |--1-1-0-1-1--||
C |--1-1-0-1-1--||
pm       .  


End. Hope it serves you well.
