But before going into Riff 2 at 1:46, that first riff cuts off in the middle leading into Riff 2. Like this.

Riff 2 
Guitar 2 (1:47-2:25)
To me it sounds like the other guitar is just playing the chords but if you think that's wrong then by all means
I encourage correction.

B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~--------------------|
E|-3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~--------------------|

Riff 3 (2:26-3:03)
I won't do separate guitar parts because to me it sounds the same on both parts. Again, if you hear something
I'm not hearing then please leave a correction!

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-2~~~~~~~--5---just a simple A to C strum----------------------------------|
A|-0~~~~~~~--3---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Riff 4 (3:04-4:18)
Fast strumming. At 3:40 there is clearly something going on in the background but it sounds synth-ey. I can't
quite make it out. If you can, leave an example!

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|-2~~~~~-5~~~~~--------7~~~~~-5~~~~~----------------------------------------|
A|-0~~~~~-3~~~~~-2~~~~~-5~~~~~-3~~~~~back to beginning of riff 4-------------|

G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------5~~~~~--------------4~~~5~~~---------------------------------------|
A|-2~~~~~-3~~~~~-5~~~~~5~~~~~-2~~~3~~~---------------------------------------|
E|-0~~~~~--------3~~~~~2~~~~~------------------------------------------------|

Changes up a bit at (4:37-4:55)
Do this twice

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|------4-4-4-4-4-4---------4-4-4--------------------------------------------|
A|-2~~~-3-3-2-3-3-2-5~~~5~~-3-3-2--------------------------------------------|
E|-0~~~-------------3~~~2~~--------------------------------------------------|

Changes just a bit again (4:56-5:33)
Do this four times. End the last one with an A chord. x02xxx

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|------4-4-4-4-4-4----------------------------------------------------------|
A|-2~~~-3-3-2-3-3-2-5~~~5~~~-------------------------------------------------|
E|-0~~~-------------3~~~2~~~-------------------------------------------------|

(5:34-7:31)
Feedback and Synth going on here. I won't tab it but to me it sounds like the progression of Riff 4, but 
super synth-ey. 

(7:32-7:50)
Go back into Riff 2 HARD!!

Riff 6

Guitar 1
(7:51-8:08)
Immediately after Riff 2 and at 7:51, start this

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4~~~~5~~2~~4~~5~~4~~~~5~~2~~5~~4~~~~5~~2~~4~~5~~4~~~~5~~2~~5~~4~~---------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 2
(7:51-8:08)
Sounds to me like it's simply going

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~4-------------------------|
E|-3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2-------------------------|

Riff 7 (8:09-8:36)

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4-5-4-2-4-2-0-2-5-5555-5555-5555555---------------------------------------|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3333-3333-3333333---------------------------------------|

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|-4-5-4-2-4-2-0-2-5-5555-5555-5555555---------------------------------------|

A|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2222-2222-2222222---------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

and then it all comes full circle (8:37-8:47)

Guitar 1
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------4~~5~4~~2~4~~2~0~~2~----------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-3~~~~~~~------------------------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 2
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------5~44~-----------------------------------------|
A|-4~~5~4~~2~4~~2~0~~2~------5~----------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------3~~~~~------------------------------------------------|

the song blisters back into Riff 1 from (8:48-9:34).

Like Riff 1 going into Riff 2 at the beginning of the song, from (9:35-9:43), it cuts off in the middle of both
guitar parts before going into the final Riff

Guitar 1 (9:35-9:43)

B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 2 (9:35-9:43)

G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-4~5~4~2~4~2~0~2~----------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------2~~~--5~4~~--7~~--54go to final riff---------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

The Final Riff (9:44-end of song)

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------7~~4~~------------------------------------------|
A|-2~~~~4~~5~~4~~5~------4~~-------------------------------------------------|
