I think this is the right Version of this fantastic song. I needed lots of time for it,
it sounds fantastic.
 
Intro:

Riff over 2nd half of 2nd chorus:

Riff #2 begins with vocals on 2nd half of clean tone part:
 
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------8---7---------8--8--8--8--8---10--10--10---7--7--7--7-7------------|
|---9-------------9----9--9--9--9--9----9---9---9----7--7--7--7-7-----------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 
 
End:  This part is kind of tricky, the chords in parentheses are arpeggiated
Also, all the chords
that are only open strings are played with upstrokes
|---x---x--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---x---x------------x---x---x---x----(x)---x--------(x)---x-------x---x-----|
|---x---x---x-------x---x---x---x----(4)--------4---(2)--------2---x---x-----|
|---2-----------2----4-------5--------(5)-------------(5)------------5-------|
|---2------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---x------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 
-----3----------------------|
3---------------------------|
4---4---7---9---11----------|
--------5---7---x---x----x--|
-----5---5---5---7----9-----|
-----3---3------------------|
 
2nd time through is the same but at the end this progression replaces the ascending octave chords
|---5----------------------------------------------------|
|---7----------------------------------------------------|
|---7----x-----------------------------------------------|
|---7----4-----then slide down into next phrase----------|
|---5----5-----------------------------------------------|
|---5----------------------------------------------------|
 
The final time ends with this chord:
 
|----7----|
|----7----|
|----8----|
|----9----|
|----9----|
|----7----|
 
2nd part of End:
 
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---x---x---x-------------------------x---x---x-----------------------------|
|---2---2---2----12---12slide11---2---2---2----11--11slide14---12-----5---4-|
|---2---2---2-------------------------2---2---2-----------------------------|
|---x---x---x----10---10slide9-----x---x---x----9----9slide12----10----3----|
 
 
-----3------------------|
-----3------------------|
--4----2--2-------------|
--7---------------------|
--5----5---5------------|
2---2-------------------|
 
 
The only difference in the 4 measure of the end are the changes in the octave chord progression,
and they are:
 
|---------------------|
|---------------------|
|----7---7/9----------|
|---------------------|
|----5---5/7----------|
|---------------------|
 
 
|-----------------------|
|----8---8/10-----------|
|-----------------------|
|-----------------------|
|----7---7/9------------|
|-----------------------|
 
That's it! Sounds really great!
