Pre-chorus ("feel the emptiness inSIDEEEE"). There might be some pinch harmonics in use here on some of those fret 7 notes, I can't quite tell. e|------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------7------------| G|--9-----X X-10-----7-----(7)----7---------| D|--9-----X-x-10-----7---------------7-6~---| x2 A|--7-----X-x--8-----5----------------------| E|------------------------------------------| Chorus Alternate between the first and second ending. e|--------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------| G|--9-------------------------------------7---------------| D|--9-------------------------------------6---------------| A|--7---------------5p4--------5p4------------------------| x8 E|------0--0--0--0-------0--0-------0--0------0--0--0--0--| | x x x x x x x x x x x x | ending 1 ending 2 e|------------------------|------------------------| b|------------------------|------------------------| G|------------------------|------------------------| D|------------------------|--6p4-------------------| A|--5h7--------7h8--------|-------------5h7--------| E|-------0--0-------0--0--|-------0--0-------0--0--| | x x x x | x x x x | Post-chorus riff 1. This is a single bar of 6/4. Listen to the song to get rhythm, it's pretty unusual. e|-----------------------| B|-----------------------| G|-----------------------| D|--2---5---4---6--5/7---| A|--2---5---4---6--5/7---| E|--0---3---2---4--3/5---| Post-chorus riff 2 (2:56).

And here we evidence the bane of tablature, i.e. the inability to tab out rhythm easily. I tried to help it by placing the subdivions of the beat above the staff. The only difference between the two measures is the notes of the last beat of each. 1 & a 2 & a e a 4 e & a 1 & a 2 & a e a 4 e & a e|-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| D|-------------------------------------|--------------------------7p5-------| E|--0---0-0---0---0-0--0--0--0-0-0-0---|--0---0-0---0---0-0--0--0-----7-5---| x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x | Near-end riff (4:57). e|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-----5/9-----5/8-----5/7--------5-/9-----5/8-----5/7----------5\4--| A|-----5/9-----5/8-----5/7--------5-/9-----5/8-----5/7----------5\4--| E|--0--3/7--0--3/6--0--3/5--0--0--3-/7--0--3/6--0--3/5--0-0--0--3\2--| x x x x x x x x x x | structure: Intro (16 bars) Pre-verse 1 riff (1 bar) Verse 1 (16 bars) Pre-chorus (8 bars) Chorus (16 bars) Post-chorus riff 1 (1 bar of 6/4) Break (4 bars) Verse 2 (8 bars) Pre-chorus (8 bars) Chorus (16 bars) Post-chorus riff 2 (4 bars) Break (4 + 8 bars) Verse 3 w/ verse riff (8 bars) Pre-chorus (8 bars) Chorus w/ chorus phrase thrice instead of twice (24 bars) Break (1 + 8 bars) Near-end riff (3 bars) Chorus (16 bars) Outro riff (4 bars)
