Chords
The main part kind of always stays the same, which is Guitar 1, the right Guitar in the track.
Guitar 2 plays this little tremolo melody in the back and the chorus. Also left guitar.
[Intro] (Everything without Drums)
Guitar 1
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------| G|------7--7--7--7--7-----6--6--6--6--6-----7--7--7--7--7------------| D|------9--9--9--9--9-----7--7--7--7--7-----9--9--9--9--9------------| x2 A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Although it might sound like the third part is played differently, it is actually the bass with another root
that gives it the altered sound.)
[Verse 1] (starts as drums kick in)
Guitar 1
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------| G|------7--7--7--7--7-----6--6--6--6--6-----7--7--7--7--7------------| D|------9--9--9--9--9-----7--7--7--7--7-----9--9--9--9--9------------| x8 A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
Guitar 2
(very big reverb, almost no dry signal, it sounds like they tremolo pick it)
This comes in after Guitar 1 played the riff 1 time and after 4 times.
Each time you play it twice.

Guitar 2
(Left Guitar, playing chords, I can not quite identify where they play it, only thing sure is its:
G A D G) Maybe try to not play the bottom strings to get that higher sound only

Guitar 2
Again comest in after Guitar 1 played the riff 1 time and after 4 times.
Each time you play it twice. This time the first repetition is more leady and present
and has a delay on it and is only played once. The second repetition is drowned in reverb again.
