I think the intro is played in 3 different positions by guitar 1
whilst guitar 2 just plays the above riff 3 times
1st time - G --14b16--14-11----12-14p12p11--12--
2nd " " - B --15b17--15-12----13-15p13p12--13--
3rd " " - E --15b17--15-12----13-15p13p12--13--

Chorus
There is a lot of stuff going on with the other guitars during the
chorus, but I haven't the time or the skill to do it correctly.
Mediocrity is not my style, so I'm not going to guess.
