The chorus may sound kinda weird but there is SO much distortion on the guitar that I
hardly tell.

Repeat and then fade
They do some time signature switches and the guitar does some cool little things, but im
lazy to tab them out.

There is no guitar II on the beginning. After playing it the correct way and asking the band members I'm pretty sure it's: ------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ -4-4-4---4-4-4----5-5-5---5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4---4-4-4--- -0-0-0---0-0-0----3-3-3---3-3-3-3-3-3-0-0-0---0-0-0--- -0-0-0---0-0-0----3-3-3---3-3-3-2-2-2-0-0-0---0-0-0---[tab][/tab] etc

yes you can play it that way, but on the recording they definitely have one guitar playing power chords and another playing octaves, the sound is too full for that guitar part. If you only have one guitar that would be the ideal way to play it.
