I highly recommend learning to it as some parts have strange timing,are harder
to hear on the album, ect.
 
Tuning:E
B
G
B
F# - Listed simply as "F" to keep alignment.
B
 
The easiest way to get to this tuning is to

B string. Then tune your A string so that
It can make a standard power chord with the former
D string/now B

sorry to organize it how I did. It's a pretty complicated song to tab so I tried my best.
If at all you feel confused try learning it to the video. Which I know seems like free
advertising lol but it really will help out.
 
Hopefully It does Help. Take Care.
