Verse 
--------------------- 

First, there is one guitar playing this Em chord over and over again. 
When the verse starts, it sounds like the 9th fret on the G-string 
is hit while half-muted. 
e|-7--| 
B|-8--| 
G|-9--| 
D|-9--| 
A|-7--| 
E|----| 

Then, after two 'bars', a tremolo-y, or wah-wah sounding guitar and another 
guitar start to follow the bass notes palm-muted: 
e|-12---10----8----7--| 
B|-12---10----8----7--| 
G|-12---11----9----8--| 
D|-14---12----10---9--| 
A|-14---12----10---9--| 
E|-12---10----8----7--| 

And 
e|-----------------------| 
B|-----------------------| 
G|-9~---7~----5~---4~----| 
D|-----------------------| 
A|-----------------------| 
E|-----------------------| 

------------------ 
Chorus 1 
------------------ 
The Chorus basically follows the intro-riff again. The same chords as in the 
verse can be used under this. 

------------------ 
verse 2 
------------------ 
The same as verse 1, but the Em chord is left out the second time. I guess 
you'll notice. Again, the chords are played while another guitar plays 
just one or two notes of these chords. 

------------------ 
Chorus 2 
------------------ 
Starts the same as Chorus 1, but get's an extension somewhere around 2:18 
which I believe is played like this: 
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|----(8)---10/12---10\8-----8---10/12---10\8-----8---10/12-----8---10/12----| 
G|-(9)---------------------9--------------------9-------------9--------------| 
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|-10\8-----8---10/12---10\8-----8---10/12-----8---10/12---10\8-----8---10/12| 
G|--------9--------------------9-------------9--------------------9----------| 
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

e|----------------------------| 
B|-10\8-----8---10/12---8~----| 
G|--------9-------------------| 
D|----------------------------| 
A|----------------------------| 
E|----------------------------| 

Under this extension, these chords fit: 
e|-5----8----7----10----8----7-| 
B|-5----8----8----10----8----7-| 
G|-5----9----9----11----9----8-| 
D|-7----10---9----12----10---9-| 
A|-7----10---7----12----10---9-| 
E|-5----8---------10----8----7-| 

---------------- 
Bridge 
---------------- 
Then there is this awesome bridge which features Josh Homme and some choir- 
like part. I think this part only has the chords which are also used in the 
verse.  

---------------- 
Chorus 3/Outro 
---------------- 
Chorus comes in again, while Josh is still singing. After a while, just  
before the Chorus vocals stop, an additional guitar starts following the 
bass notes of the chords and adds some additional notes.  

Ends with the Em again.
