This is my version of Rest My Chemistry.

I've gotten to know the way Daniel writes, so I'm almost certain this is accurate.

Guitar 1 (Daniel)
e----------------------------------7-7-7-7-7-----------------------
B---7x-7---------------------------7-7h8h7-7-----------------------
G---7x-9--7-7----------------------7-7-7-7-7-----------------------
D---9x-9--9-9slide12slide9----9x9--9-9-9-9-9-----------------------
A--10x10--9-9slide12slide9----7x7--7-7-7-7-7-----------------------
E------------------------------------------------------------------

Main lead goes:

e------7---------7--------7----7-----7----------|
B---8----8--7--7---7--10----10---8-8---8--------|
G-----------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------|

Other lead at 2:37 and 3:34 goes:

Guitar 1 (Daniel)
e-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B---8-8-8-8-12-12-12-12--8-8-8-8-10-10-10-8-7-7-7-7-12-12-12-12---------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

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

Then tremolo pick these:
e------------------------------------------------------------------
B-s12~~~~~~s14~~~~~~s15~~~~~~~s17~~~~~~~~
G------------------------------------------------------------------|
D------------------------------------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------------------------------|

Same part, enter Paul's guitar, also tremolo picking at 2:48, right before Daniel stars 
picking:
e------------------------------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------------------------------|
G---7~~~~~~s6~~~~~~s4~~~~~~~~~7~~~~~~s9~~~~~~s6~~~~~s4~~~~~--|
D------------------------------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------------------------|

At 3:34 you'll encounter the same lead, where Daniel plays:
Guitar 1 (Daniel)
e----------------------------------------------------------------|
B---8-8-8-8-12-12-12-12--8-8-8-8-10-10-10-8-7-7-7-7-12-12-12-12--|
G----------------------------------------------------------------|
D----------------------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------------| PLAY x2 SECOND TIME AROUND

e------------------------------------|
B---8-8-8-8-14-14-14-14-14-14-15-15--|
G------------------------------------|
D------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------|

Besides that, the chords remain the same, and the lead is the same. Just repeated, a
The order is simple, strumming pattern is simple. Daniel does this thing where he'll strum
strings muted and the rest at 0 at the end of the main progression of chords, he does 
in a lot of songs, so don't be confused if you hear it. Just watch a live video on
Good luck, more tabs to come soon.
