Tabs

This is an alternate way to play the intro. It gives it a 12 string
sound on a 6 stirng, and you can play around with bending strings,
etc. It's a little harder to play, but it sounds better. Or you can
use a 12 string if you have one. Other than that, heavy distortion,
perhaps a phaser or flange (if you have it on any of your equipment)
and a wah. But that's all up to you.
