This tab is not 100% accurate, but close enough I think. It sounds right if you play it like this.

Main riff:

E---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|
B---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|
G---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|
D-----7-5-|---2-5-2-|-----5---|-----9-5-|-----7-5-|---2-5---|---------|---------|
A---7-----|-3-------|-5-5---5-|-5-7-----|---7-----|-3-----5-|---------|---------|
E-5-------|---------|---------|---------|-5-------|---------|---------|---------|

Bridge 1:

E---------|-----------|----------|--------|---------|---------|---------|-------|
B---------|-----------|----------|--------|-10 10---|---------|---------|-------|
G---------|---------4-|----------|-8-8/12-|-------9-|-9-9-9-8-|-9-9-9-8-|-9-9-8-|
D-9-7-5---|-5---5-7---|-9---9-10-|--------|---------|---------|---------|-------|
A-------5-|---5-------|---7------|--------|---------|---------|---------|-------|
E---------|-----------|----------|--------|---------|---------|---------|-------|

Bridge 2:

E---------|------|----------|----------|----------|----------|---------|-17+++++-|
B---------|------|-10-10-13-|-10-10-10-|-10-10-10-|-13-13-13-|-10+++++-|---------|
G-4-------|--7-7-|----------|----------|----------|----------|---------|---------|
D---5---5/|9-----|----------|----------|----------|----------|---------|---------|
A-----5---|------|----------|----------|----------|----------|---------|---------|
E---------|------|----------|----------|----------|----------|---------|---------|

The + signs mean that you should just repeat that note. I'm not sure about how many times exactly.

Verse:
Just play these chords:

A/C/D/C#/A/C/B

During the C# part, this is also played:

E-1-----
B---2---
G-----1-
