This is my second tab, and  I have noticed no one has this 
Complete tab which pissed me off and its kick ass once you learn it
 Here it is

E-----------------------------------------------------
B-----------------------------------------------------
G-----------------------------------------------------
D------------9------------97             ------------
A------------7------------75 4times then --7--5--4--2
E--0-0-0-0-0----0-0-0-0-0----             --5--3--2--0
  pm........    .........                   ..........
the last two times the second guitar does this
D-------------9------------97
A------------10-----------109 
E--0-0-0-0-0----0-0-0-0-0-----

                                   You do this right before the verse
D------2---2--2---2---2h3p2h3p2p0   -5-7-5
A------2---2--2---2---2h3p2h3p2p0   -3-5-3
E--0-0---0------0---0------------   ------
  pm....................  
           this is the pre chours and is done during the second intro
D---------------------------------------
A--------5--------5---------------------
E--0--0--3--0--0--3--0--0--2-2-2-2-2-2-2
