Verse - Also here are several parts: The first part of the verse is completely palm muted.
The first part is played one time. So the second part is played two time.
The second part is basically palm muted, only at the beginning the first two chords are played....
After the second part you just do a little slide and play the bridge tice...

Order: Intro - Bridge - Verse - Bridge - Chorus - Bridge
            Verse - Bridge - Chorus - Solo - Chorus

Well, yeah.. that's it! After a little time of practice you can play that great song!
The only thing that's a bit hard to play is maybe the Solo which is a bit fast
But you can also play just the Bridge which is kinda the same...
Well, you just have to practice.. like Timmy ;)
