Ok, here it the tab for the song, i havent see the video yet to see if there 
are any glipses at teh fret boards but if im wrong in an area i'll correct it.

For guitar 2's parts, the chords sound better as they are than barring the
A and D strings on the same fret as doing that makes them sound too low.

Guitar 1's solo/repeating riffs are pretty much spot on, lee has quite a
messy sound due to phaser/flange an distortion on so some notes are hard to hear.

Any mistakes ill correct when i see the video/live video of them playing.

(. = play then mute immediately after eg. with palm)
(~ = ret ring)
