Certain parts of this song require a 7-sting guitar tuned to G-C-G-C-G-C-E,
I'll include variations for those with a 6 string, it won't sound exactly like
the song, but it will fit.
Main riff
After 2 times, 2nd guitar harmonizes main riff with:
twice, then the intro riff again
Main riff again, harmonized, slightly different picking pattern
only once, then:

G-/15h18------------------18-15h18------------------18-|
twice, then:

Chorus outro
(tremolo picking)
he tremolo picks most of the solo, which is why there are such odd intervals of the same notes
(such as the 12's at the beginning)

Melodic Part
This is where he uses the low g-string on a 7 string guitar (he goes down to a b flat)
This is the riff for a six string guitar (once again, fits but isn't the same as in the song)
Also, sorry for the people who have a 7 string, as i don't have the tab for this part.
He uses the 7th string again to go down to c flat, but for 6-stringers just do:
seven-stringers can do
Back to the main riff(with a slight variation)
uses the seven string, again...
