On the final 2 choruses, theres a third guitar part. I think it goes like this:
E---------------------------------|
B-8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---|
G---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-|
D---------------------------------|
A---------------------------------|
D---------------------------------|
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
E---------------------------------|
B-7---7---7---7---7---7---7p8-8-8-|
G---7---7---7---7---7---7-7-7-7-7-|
D---------------------------------|
A---------------------------------|
D---------------------------------|
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
E---------------------------------|
B-8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---|
G---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-|

G---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-|
D---------------------------------|
A---------------------------------|
D---------------------------------|
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
And just do that for both of the choruses.
TAB KEY
e = eigth note
q = quarter note
q. = dotted quarter note
p.m. = palm mute
* = what notes to palm mute on
hr = half rest
h.r = dotted half rest
wr = whole rest
x (on tab lines) = harmonic on that string
Well thats it! Now go learn it.
