------------
There are 3 guitars on  the  album:  1  clean  guitar, which plays the
introduction and is mixed  centrally;  and  two  distorted, rhythm and
lead, mixed left and right  respectively.  After the introduction, the
clean guitar  is  mixed  pretty  low,  so  this  transcription  is  an
arrangement for 2 guitars -  the  rhythm guitar plays the introduction
clean, and then stomps  on  the  distortion  for  everything else. I'm
going to call the rhythm guitar John, and the lead guitar Michael, for
obvious reasons.
By the way, this song has a  well  cool bass line- bassists take note.
Anybody fancy transcribing it?

Comments and corrections welcome, as usual...

NB John is in 'dropped-G' tuning (low  to  high EADEBE) with a capo on
the third fret- fret positions are given relative to the capo. Michael
is in standard tuning.

   Chorus/Out-solo

I can't be bothered transcribing the  out-solo  - it doesn't sound too
complicated, so just fiddle about with G minor pentatonic.

Notation used:
   + = Marks the beat
   . = Marks a quarter-beat
   p = Pull-off
   h = Hammer-on
   / = Slide
   ~ = Vibrato
   b = Bend
   r = Release bend

Sorry if the bending notation is  a  little confusing - notating bends
is always a bit awkward. Just to clarify,

---7b9------b9r7p5-----

means bend from the seventh fret up two frets, hold, restrike, release
bend and then pull off to the fifth fret.

Enjoy!
