Tuning:Drop D

I'm not sure if this is 100% correct but I'm pretty sure it mostly is.
This is how I play the song.
As always listen to the song very carefully,study the parts and have fun.
the HIATUS is a band that I love with a passion as it has one of my idols (Lead 
guitar Takeshi Hosomi)and this song is just unbelieveable. (Side Note: Most if not all of the 
is down picked.)

(This part can be very tricky and hard to hear, but just listen closely to the song.This 
100% correct but this is what I play)During the second time around the chrous lead 
plays something similar to this:

Intro
Verse

Chorus:The only difference with this chorus is that the lead guitar ends the chorus with 
after playing the 12 and 14 on the A and G strings.

e|----------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------|
G|-10~------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------|
A|--8~------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------|

Then Bridge: There is guitar playing while all the feedback is going crazy and the piano 
playing but I can't figure it out. This part is the ending of the bridge that builds up 
the chorus.

Then Final Chorus:which is same as previous choruses.

Then outro: which is basically the intro but it ends with guitar 1 ending on 13th fret 
the low E string (Which is tuned to a D in this song)
and the guitar 2 ends on the same string but on the 17th fret.
