Tabs

Tuning is drop BB but I think you have to go a
half semi-tone up so you're in between drop BB and drop C,
 sounds a bit better

Harmonize during 5th and 6th time

And repeat those 2 riffs

And then this harmony

C#C#|-------------------------------8-10-8-------------|
G#G#|-------------8----8-10-8-10-11--------11-10-------|
E MajorE |-7-9-10-9-10---10---------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------------------------|
F#F#|--------------------------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------------------------| x2

C#C#|-10---12---13---15---17---17----|
G#G#|-13b--15b--16b--18b--20b--20b---|
E MajorE |--------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------|
F#F#|--------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------|

C#C#|----------------------------|
G#G#|-20b--18--20b--18--20b--18--|
E MajorE |----------------------------|
BB |----------------------------|
F#F#|----------------------------|
BB |----------------------------|
Bend up and then back down and then hit the eighth fret

C#C#|-------------------------------|
G#G#|-------------------------------|
E MajorE |-------------------------17-18-|
BB |-------------------17-19-------|
F#F#|----------17-19-20-------------|
BB |-17-19-20----------------------|

Then the fast soloish riff with power chords behind

C#C#|-------------------------------|
G#G#|-------------------------------|
E MajorE |-------------------------------|
BB |-3--------5--------7--------10-|
F#F#|-1--------3--------5--------8--|
BB |-------------------------------| x2

C#C#|--------------------------------------------------|
G#G#|--------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE |--------------------------------------------------|
BB |-3--------5--------7--------10-------3--------5---|
F#F#|-1--------3--------5--------8--------1--------3---|
BB |--------------------------------------------------|

C#C#|----------------------------------------------------------|
G#G#|----------------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE |----------------------------------------------------------|
BB |0---0---0---0-2---3-0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0-----|
F#F#|----------------------------------------------------------|
BB |--0---0---0-----0-----0---0---0---0---2---2---2---7---8-5-|
                   !Clean!

Now the chorus (with the octave chords) twice

C#C#|--------------------------------------------------|
G#G#|--------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE |--------------------------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------------------------|
F#F#|--------------------------------------------------|
BB |-3-2-1-2-1-0-3-2-1-2-1-0-3-2-1-2-1-0-6-5-4-7-6-5--|
But gradually slow down the 3,2,1 and 0's, it's easy if you listen to the song

C#C#|--------------------------------------------------|
G#G#|--------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE |--------------------------------------------------|
BB |--------------------------------------------------|
F#F#|--------------------------------------------------|
BB |-0----6---5----3---5----0-------------------------|

That was it, I hope you liked it
