Les likes to use a delay pedal for almost the entire song.  I have tabbed it out so that you don’t need a delay pedal.  Notes on which he uses delay will be marked with (*).  So if you have a delay pedal just play the marked notes once.  I don’t think he taps in the beginning riff, but that’s the way I play it to give a delay feel.  Have I said the word delay enough?  Hope this isn’t too confusing.  This is my first tab, and it should be fairly close. So enjoy.
