ive seen some really $h!!ty guitar pro tabs and unfinished tabs for this
 so HERE IT IS. if you want it right DO IT YOURSELF. it might not
be completely perfect but its damn close. try it out and post any changes if
you think it helps.  im just going to tab out the riff and you
can piece them together.

Tuning:Drop C CGCFAD

A|----5-7-8-----5-7-8------5-7-8---8-7-5-------5/7-8/10/12--------12---------|
E|--0---------0----------0---------------------------------------------------|

for this riff i think you can play it in the open Am postion but it has a nice flow
up at the 5th with the slides  it sounds smoother

e|--------------------------------------------0------------------------------|
B|---------0-----------0--------------------3--3-----------------------------|
G|--------5-5---------4- 4h5p4\2h4p2------4-----5----------------------------|
D|-----------7----------------------0-2-3--3-3-------------------------------|

E|-----------------2---2/5---------------------------------------------------|

heres the delay lead.  i have a POD and a jcm 800 amp with analog delay set
to dotted eigth notes works very nicely :) this is the jist of it and you can
fiddle around with this scale(in brackets)

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
the verse riff... all barre chords(its the same shape all the way through so 
im just going to write the root note to save time) pick AND slide them
at the same time
