For the verse, the guitar just strikes an E chord on occasion.
E--0--
B--0--
G--1--
D--2--

for the first solo:

The bass plays A for the chorus (?) part after the 2nd solo,
there's a very buried clean guitar strumming A, I think.

E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

for the chorus after that solo, come in towards the end playing this:
E------|
B--5---|
G--7b-- and keep bending/picking the D note..
D------| and astray from there on 5th/7th frets
A------|
E------|
the fifth solo is basically a feedback solo, dissolving into a guitarless break.
for the sixth solo, just repeat the basic elements of previous solos (haha)
and proceed to meltdown.
