(repeat part 2 twice  and then back to part 1 of the chorus - then repeat part 2 of the chorus 4 times. On the 4th time you don't do the last part of part 2, listen to the song you'll get it. Also on the last chorus at 3:02, you repeat part 2 six times instead of 4)  

bridge - 2:07
this is probably near impossible to tab since the guitar isnt really playing much. 
however i have the video for this song (live) and i can kind of figure out what 
larry (the guitarist) is doing. at first hes mutting or doing a bar chord at the 3rd
or 4th fret and just stratching his pick up and down the fretboard on the strings. 
then when you hear that crazy stuff at about 2:37...hes hammering on like crazy. i
use wah with some low phaser and short delay when i play this and it sounds pretty 
close. for the most part just play around.

postbridge - 2:45-3:01
a|-5b-----
e|--------
(you can hear it faintly in the background let ring for about 4-5 seconds and redo. 
maybe use some reverb or delay for some effect.)

outro - 3:28-3-36 
d|-----10-
a|-----8--
e|-5-2----
(you repeat this seven times over and over then you can slide the bottom strings that you hear about 3:36 and then ending note) 

ending note - 3:37
a|--10------
e|--8-~-----
