Guitar 2
*I kind of made this up because I dont think there is a real lead part here as far as I can hear.
It flows nice with the chords.
eb|-----0-----0-----0------0--------------------------------| Bb|----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0--0----------------------------| Gb|---9---9-8---8-9---9-11---11-----------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------------| Ab|---------------------------------------------------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------------|

"You wonder why it always ends the same..."
Verse 2 is the same.
Pre Chorus & Chorus is the same.
Bridge
Violin plays before guitars come in at 3:05 with feedback and pick scrapes.
You can play a clean or acoustic at this part:
E A C#m B
"you live your life like youre not in control, like you playing a roll..."
Breakdown/Outro
eb|---0~---2~---0~-0~---0~---0~---000000000000-----------------| Bb|---0~---2~---0~-0~---0~---0~---000000000000-----------------| Gb|---9~---2~---6~-6~---6~---4~---222222222222-----------------| Db|---9~---4~---7~-7~---6~---4~---222222222222-----------------| Ab|---7~---4~---7~-7~---4~---2~---000000000000-----------------| Eb|---0~---2~---5~-5~------------------------------------------|

When it picks up John switches to this:
Guitar 1
eb|---000000-000000-000000000000-000000-000000-000000000000-------------------| Bb|---000000-000000-000000000000-000000-000000-000000000000-------------------| Gb|---111111-xxxxxx-222222222222-666666-444444-222222222222-------------------| Db|---222222-444444-222222222222-666666-444444-222222222222-------------------| Ab|---222222-444444-000000000000-444444-222222-000000000000-------------------| Eb|---000000-222222-----------------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 2
This is pretty much the violin part for a 2nd Guitar.
John and Eddie both play the above chords or variations of those chords (on Eddies end).
eb|------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|---16---14---13---9--11-------------------------------------| Db|----x----x----x---x---x-------------------------------------| Ab|---14---12---11---7---9-------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------------------|

or you could do this... either play like I wrote out or hold the notes out.
eb|---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------------------------------------| Bb|--1212121212121010-9-0--0----------------------------------| Gb|---------------------9-11----------------------------------| Db|-----------------------------------------------------------| Ab|-----------------------------------------------------------| Eb|-----------------------------------------------------------|

End on the E chord
Enjoy!
