This is a good song for beginners to learn some solid guitar basics. We've condensed both guitars from the song into one ActionTab to show you all the riffs together:
Riff 1 - This is the rhythm guitar part and is played constantly throughout much of the song. Use a clean guitar sound. It is just constant alternate down / up picking on the C note. Break it down into 4's and play the first stroke a bit harder than the next 3 notes like so:
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - etc
That 1st pickstroke will always be a downstroke. This is called 'accenting' and is a useful way to help you keep your timing consistent. Listen carefully to the ActionTab and you will hear that accent.

Riff 2 - To keep these powerchords punchy it is important to mute inbetween strikes.
Riff 3 - Start with the C5 powerchord again, but this time shift up to alternate between Eb major and Bb major (partial chords). Add a little vibrato at the end of this Eb major for seasoning.
Riff 4 - In the verses a piano repeats through 4 simple chords. There's room to play them on guitar too, which is what we've done here (turn your volume knob down to get a cleaner sound):
C minor - Ab major - Bb major - C minor (repeat)
Riff 5 - Some straightforward rock riffing here, which ends on this little ascending lick.
Riff 6 - Just some atmosperic lead guitar in the song. Just play these 3 double stops (a double stop is where you play 2 notes together) and add vibrato. Nice and easy.
The rest of the song is just a repetition of all these riffs. Have fun!
