then chorus again a few times then other guitars come in
with the two intro riffs played over chorus.

Intro 2 goes like this at end:
e|---------5---------3-2-0-----5--3-2-0-|
B|-0-3-2-3--3--3-3-3-------3-3--3-------|
G|--------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|
Just repeat that a couple of times but end on 2 on the B string
and lightly, slowly and hardly noticeably vibrato the note i think.

That was my first tab so sorry if its a bit unorganised.
