That's pretty much it for the verse. The first guitar kinda does some extra stuff, but 
the main thing it plays.

Prechorus (or chorus whatever):

The first one goes like this:

  Guitar 1(Slightly distorted)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 2(Clean w/chorus)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--10*hold---------9*hold----------10*hold---------9*hold------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|


  Guitar 1
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---|

 |Guitar 2

B|--10--------------9---------------10---10----10----10----10---------|
G|--------------------------------------9-----9-----9-----9-----------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

The part where he says "If I haven't got you.." is exactly the same as the verse.


The second prechorus however, goes like this:

  Guitar 1(Slightly distorted)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 2(Clean w/chorus)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--10*hold---------9*hold----------10*hold---------9*hold------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 3(Slightly more distorted than guitar 1)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------7---------------9---------------11----12\---------|

 |Guitar 3
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0---------------5---------------7---------------9-----------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

And the part where he says "It means nothing" goes like this:

Guitar 1(Slightly Distorted)
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-0-2-0-0-0--|

 |
 |Guitar 2 (Clean w/Chorus)
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--10*hold---------9*hold----------10*hold---------9*hold-----------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 3 (Slightly more distorted than guitar 1)
E|------------------0-------------------------------0----------------|
B|------------------2-------------------------------2----------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-----------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|


  Guitar 1
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 2

B|--10*hold---------9*hold----------10*hold---------9*hold-----------|

G|------------------6-------------------------------6----------------|
D|------------------7-------------------------------7----------------|
A|-/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

In the above you can just mute the B string with your middle finger while fretting the G string.

The final prechorus is the same except another guitar kicks in and plays this:

  Guitar 1(Slightly distorted)
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
 |
 |Guitar 4(Also slightly distorted)
E|------9-----------12----9-------------9-----------12----9-----------|
B|--12------12--10------12----------12------12--10------12------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|


  Guitar 1
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

 |Guitar 4
E|------9-----------12----9-------------9-----------12----9-----------|
B|--12------12--10------12----------12------12--10------12------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

And just continues like this for the verse til the end of the song.

You can also play an acoustic version of this song, which wouldn't sound as good, but 
can put like a rythm guitar in the background like this:
