Hi guys I'm 99% sure this 100% correct but it sounds pretty damn good to me :)

b = bend
T = Tied note
hb = half bend
qb = quarter bend
Tp = Tremolo Picked
() = Ghost Note
> = Accent

Piano Riff (thought I'd tab this seperately as it isplayed throughout the whole song)

e--12--12------|

G--9---9-------|
D--------------|
A--------------|
E--------------|

Tremolo picked part (played with a delay effect and something else im not sure of);

Bridge - No guitar (you can finally stop tremolo picking for the rest of the song :) )

Solo type thing - During this song Brad only plays the note on the A string and uses a
to play the the notes on the G but for easier learning purposes I'll tab all of the notes.
