G|-------4-6/8--------------6/8---8\6-4------------------------------------| 
D|---4-6-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Here is the verse, which is also just the chords played behind the intro riff: 
e|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4-6-6-7-7-7--7-7-7--7-2-2--2-2-2--2--------------|

E|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4-6-6-7-7-7--7-7-7--7-2-2--2-2-2--2--------------| 

e|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4-2-2-0-0-0--0-0-0--0-7-7--7-7-7--7--------------|

D|---6-6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6-4-4-2-2-2--2-2-2--2-9-9--9-9-9--9--------------| 
A|---6-6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6-4-4-2-2-2--2-2-2--2-9-9--9-9-9--9--------------| 
E|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4-2-2-0-0-0--0-0-0--0-7-7--7-7-7--7--------------| 

e|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4------------------------------------------------| 
B|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4------------------------------------------------| 
G|---5-5--5-5-5--5-5-5--5-5------------------------------------------------| 
D|---6-6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6------------------------------------------------| 
A|---6-6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6------------------------------------------------| 
E|---4-4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4------------------------------------------------| 

It does that whole thing twice, then hits the pre-chorus part: 
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|----------------6-6-6----------------------6-6-6-------------------------| 
D|---1-2-1-2-4--2-6-6-6--6-6-6--1-2-1-2-4--2-6-6-6--6-6-6------------------| 
A|----------------4-4-4--6-6-6---------------4-4-4--6-6-6------------------| 
E|-----------------------4-4-4----------------------4-4-4------------------| 

e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|---9-9--9-9-9-11-11111111-13-13-13-13-13-13-13--13-13-13-----------------| 
D|---9-9--9-9-9-11-11111111-13-13-13-13-13-13-13--13-13-13-----------------| 
A|---7-7--7-7-7-9--9-9-9-9--11-11-11-11-11-11-11--11-11-11-----------------| 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

Then it gets to the chorus, which goes: 
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|---8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8---------------------------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---| 
D|---8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---| 
A|---6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---| 
E|-------------------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-----------------------| 

Then back to the intro: 
e|---4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4--------------------------------------------------| 
B|---4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4--------------------------------------------------| 
G|---5--5-5-5--5-5-5--5-5--------------------------------------------------| 
D|---6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6--------------------------------------------------| 
A|---6--6-6-6--6-6-6--6-6--------------------------------------------------| 
E|---4--4-4-4--4-4-4--4-4--------------------------------------------------| 

The lead part is mostly the same, but changes a little. Use the same chords as you did 
in the intro to play behind this part: 
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|---7-9-7-9-7-------7h9-7------------7------------------------------------| 
G|-------------8-8---------8\6-4--6/8---6--8-9-8-6-5-6/8-------------------| 
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|----------/9-7-----------------------------------------------------------| 
G|---/9-8--------/6-4---/8-6--6\5~\----------------------------------------| 
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

After this part is played, it goes into a verse, the same as the first, and continues on 
the same path as it did during the first part of the song. After the chorus, it goes 
back to the second part of the pre-chorus and then does the chorus again, repeating that  
twice. Then it goes to this little interlude part: 
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|---9-9-9-7-5--7-7-7-5-4----9-9-9-7-5--7-7-7-5-4--------------------------| 
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
