Muse's single from their upcoming album 'The 2nd Law'
 
Whole song can be played clean with some slight compression!
 
Turn on the fuzz for the solo!

the ending (i need your love) verse after the solo its more like this e||--10---13--13--13-----| B||--11---13--11--11-----| G||--12---10--10--12-----| D||--12---12--x---13-----| A||---x----x--x---x------| E||---x----x--x---x------|

pretty sure the end chorus is played like thise||--10--13--13--11--|B||--11--13--11--11--|G||--12--14--12--12--|D||--12--15--13--13--|A||------------------|E||------------------| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTG_M9CQo-8 instrumental version if you want to compare
