Here is a version I tabbed out in regular tuning:
E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE for those of us who are lazy and don't
feel like retuning and just want to jam along. I
know some people may point out errors or play a part
differently. THIS IS MY TRANSCRIPTION OF THE SONG.
NOT ALL PARTS WILL BE EXACT TO THE ALBUM so if you
would like to offer any suggestions, comments, or
questions please let me know. Use this for self
practice and entertainment only. Enjoy!

 4 6 4 6 4 twice instead of the pick slide)
 
Chorus
 
Solo
 
(4:17) Chorus x2
 
outro (The outro is pretty much the same as the intro with some
       variations...listen and you hear)
 

WOW! What a great song! It took me awhile to tab everything
out and get it on the computer. Hope you enjoy!
