The lead outro isn't supposed to be lifted from the song like the rest of the tab.
I gave up trying to hear through the effects so went my own way.


--------------------------------------------------------
My notation is not going to be 100% technically correct.
A 🏷Legend for what I mean:

.  - Palm Mute
\  - Slide Down
/  - Slide Up
~  - For single notes = vibrato / For chords = let ring
br - bend and release
fb - full bend and hold
b  - half bend and hold
x  - dead note
PH - Pinch Harmonic
h  - hammer on
p  - pull off
