The song is quite easy to follow along with. Credit for the intro/verse and a few other parts goes to Brian McCall and Raman Bhatia, as I put together a bunch of tabs I found and fixed some parts and added others. Any questions, comments or corrections email me.

With some practice it gets easy. I would say Guitar 1 plays the bar chords and Guitar 2 plays the bends.
