First tab!
Standard tuning with the 6th (bottom E) string tuned up two half steps (F#ADGBe, if you
want a catchy name for it).
Intro
e–|—–5—4-2——-2—————0—2p0—0—–0—2p0—0—|
B–|—2—2———1—1-0—————————————–|
G–|—————————2—1h2—2—–2—1h2—2—–2—–|
D–|—————————————————————–|
A–|—————————————————————–|
F#-|-0—————————————————————|
The main riff is just one note different from the intro; just replace the first F# with
a C# on the B string.
I’ll still print it again, though, for convenience’s sake.

And then after that there’s another riff also pretty much identical to the intro (we’ll
call it “riff B”):
e–|—–5—4-2——-2—————0—2p0—0—————0—|
B–|-2-2—2———1—1-0————————————-0—|
G–|—————————2—1h2—2—–2——-2-2p1-1—4—|
D–|————————————————————-2—|
A–|————————————————————-4—|
F#-|————————————————————-0—|
(That last chord is questionable, but it sounds all right and you can replace it with
pretty much any similar-sounding chord.)
These sound like harmonics, but on an acoustic (which is what I used to tab this) you
don’t need to play the harmonics. This riff is played over the chorus (“chorus”):
e–|———–11——————–12-11-12-11—|
B–|——–12—-12—-12——–12—————|
G–|—–13———-13——–13——————|

F#-|-0———————————————|
There are two weird solos that are played backwards in the song, but there’s also a
“playable” part under them (“solo”) which more or less goes like this:
e–|—————————————————————–|
B–|—————————————————————–|
G–|—————————————————————–|
D–|—6-6-6-6-6-6-6-7-6-6-6-7-6-6-6—6-6-6-7-6-6-6-7-6-7-6-6-6-6-6-|

D–|—7-7-7-7-6-6-7——————7-7-7-7-7-6-7——————|

Later there’s a riff similar to the main one and an octave lower (“riff C”):
e–|—————————————————————–|
B–|—————————————————————–|
G–|—————————————1————————-|
D–|—–7—6-4——-4—————2—————2—2———|
A–|—4—4———3—3-2—0————————————-|
F#-|-0—————————–2h3————-2-3——-3-3-2—|
Again, there’s a slight variation on that riff to end it with the same questionable
chord (“riff C2”):
e–|————————————————————-0—|
B–|————————————————————-0—|
G–|—————————————1———————4—|
D–|—–7—6-4——-4—————2——-2—————–2—|
A–|—4—4———3—3-2—0———————————4—|
F#-|-0—————————–2h3————-3-3-3-3-2-2—0—|
That’s about it, apart from those two weird solos.
The whole song goes something like this:

Main riff (x3)
Riff B
Chorus (x4)
