I finally figured out the entire Positive Tension guitar part. Here it is:


Tuning:EADGBE

the bit played around 0:58
e|------------6~--------|
B|---4~--4-3------------|
G|----------------------|
D|----------------------|
A|----------------------|
E|----------------------|

These are the power chords played during the "run-run-run" part:

e|------------|------------|
B|------------|------------|
G|------------|------------|
D|-----6------|-----3------|
A|-----6------|-----3------|
E|-----4------|-----1------|


Then these are the chords played around 2:34

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---5-5-5------------------------------7-7-7-7-----------------------------|
D|---5-5-5--5-5-5-----6-6-6---3-3-3-----7-7-7-7-----------------------------|
A|---3-3-3--5-5-5-----6-6-6---3-3-3-----5-5-5-5-----------------------------|
E|----------3-3-3-----4-4-4---1-1-1-----------------------------------------|

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---5-5-5------------------------------6-6-6-6-----------------------------|
D|---5-5-5--5-5-5-----6-6-6---3-3-3-----6-6-6-6-----------------------------|
A|---3-3-3--5-5-5-----6-6-6---3-3-3-----4-4-4-4-----------------------------|
E|----------3-3-3-----4-4-4---1-1-1-----------------------------------------|

Keep playing those chords until the solo

Guitar 2 plays a different riff that I haven't gotten yet, but I'll update soon
