It opens with two acoustic guitars which I've tabbed for one:

  C                              Em
E|------0-------3-------------|------0-------0---------------------|
B|------1-------1-------------|------0-------0---------------------|
G|--0---0---0---0------0--0---|------0-------0---------------------|
D|--2-------2---2------2--2---|--2---2---2---2---------------------|
A|--3-------3----------3--3---|--2-------2---2---------------------|
E|----------------------------|--0-------0-------------------------|

  Am                             F
E|--0---0---------0--0--------|------1-------3---------------------|
B|--1---1---1--0--1--0--------|------1-------1---------------------|
G|--2---2---2--2--2--2--------|--2---2---2---2---------------------|

A|--0---0---0--0--0--0--0--0--|--3---3---3-------------------------|
E|----------------------------|--1---------------------------------|

Then the acoustic guitars are joined
by a snappy muted electric guitar with
a little reverb that goes:

    C                             Em
E|--X--------------X-----------|--7--------------------------7------|
B|--8--------------8-----------|--8--------------------------8------|
G|--9--------------9-----------|--9--------------------------9------|
D|-10-------------10-----------|--9--------------------------9------|
A|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|

   Am                             F
E|--5--------------5-----------|--1---------------1-----------------|
B|--5--------------5-----------|--1---------------1-----------------|
G|--5--------------5-----------|--2---------------2-----------------|
D|--7--------------7-----------|--3---------------3-----------------|
A|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|

And another guitar comes in with the
electric guitar with these fills:
    C
E|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
D|----------------------12/14--|------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------|-------10----10/12-----------10-----|

G|--------------------12-------|---10-----10------------------------|
D|--------------------12h14h12-|---10----10-------------------------|
A|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|------------------------------------|

Chours:

E|-0--0--0---0--0--0----0|-1--1--1---1--1--1--1--------3--1---------|

During the chorus, the bottom E note of the above
is doubled by an overdriven guitar, which might actually be the bass.
