Play Pre-Chorus
Chorus:
The guitar is the same, but the keyboard part is a little different:
|--------6--6--6-6-6-5--5-5-----3-0------------|
|-1-1--1-----------------------------4-1----1--|
|------------------------------------------3---|

Bridge:
The bass plays alone for the first bit, so I tabbed it out:

|------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------|

|-------------------------------------------6--6-|
|-8--8--8--8--8--8--8--8--4--4--4--4--4--4-------|
Then the guitar comes in:

|-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|play 4x's
|-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
The third time this plays, the keyboards come in:
Keyboard:
|------------------|
|-11b(13~11~13~11)-|
|------------------|
|------------------|
|------------------|
|------------------|
This keeps bending up and down, and it fades out just
before the guitar goes into this:
