Basically this is my first tab and i love this acoustic version but couldn't find a tab 
of it anywhere, so i gave it a go myself :) This is how i play it and it sounds great :) 
enjoy and comment corrections :)

Tuning: Drop D

Intro (Max, Matt plays the same thing but repeats the low D instead of the chord)
|-----------------------0-|
|-----------------------3-|
|-----------------------2-|  x4
|---------3\2--0--------0-|
|--0h3--5--------3/5------|
|---------------------0---|
The last time, instead of playing the low D, repeat the D note on the A string.

Verse
Guitar 1 (Max) repeats the intro riff throughout verse.

Guitar 2 (Chris)
|--0-1-0h1----0---|
|--3-3-3------3---|
|--2-2-2------2---| x8
|--0-0-0------0---|
|-----------------|
|-----------------|
This is played each time the Dsus2 is played in the riff.

Guitar 3 - i think starts playing a single D note in the 2nd half of the verse.
|------------------------------------|
|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----|
|------------------------------------| x3
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|

|---------------------5---5---5---5---5---|
|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---3---3---3---3------|    Then plays this the last time.

I cant quite work out the lead in the background but the chords are simple.
|--1-1-1-1-----3-3-3-3-----1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-|
|--1-1-1-1-----1-1-1-1-----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
|--3-3-3-3-----0-0-0-0-----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|--3-3-3-3-----2-2-2-2-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
|--1-1-1-1-----3-3-3-3---------------------|
|------------------------------------------|

|--1-1-1-1-----1-1-1-1-----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
|--1-1-1-1-----1-1-1-1-----1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-|
|--3-3-3-3-----2-2-2-2-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
|--3-3-3-3-----3-3-3-3-----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|--1-1-1-1-----3-3-3-3-----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
|------------------------------------------|

Verse 2

Guitar 1 - plays riff from intro and verse throughout again.

Guitar 2 - plays this riff instead:

|--1/3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----|
|---------------------------------|  x4
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
Guitar 3 - plays same as Verse 1

Bridge

|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7---5-5-5-5-5-5-5----10-10-10-10-10-10-10---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7---5-5-5-5-5-5-5----8--8--8--8--8--8--8----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| x4
|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5---3-3-3-3-3-3-3----8--8--8--8--8--8--8----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
|-----------------------------------8--8--8--8--8--8--8----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|

The solo is played over the last 2 repetitions of the bridge, i havent worked it out yet 
but i'll post it as soon as i do :)

Final Chorus - played just like the second chorus but ends on the intro riff.

Hope you liked it, its my first tab so is quite rusty :P But i love to play it like this :)
