|----22-44--44---4444--44---44-44-4444-44-| 
 
This is where the vocals come in. You can either do an open A string, or 7 on the e string, I use the 7

|-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-| muted 7 on the e string, until 
|-9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-| you get back to Riff A 
|----------------------------------------------------------| 
 
The Interlude is two parts, I'll be nice and post both, since the rhythm is easy to post 
Part 1 is the rhythm. It's only three chords, you can tell where it changes, so I'll just post the chords. It goes in this pattern.. 
 
Asus4 - Esus4 - F#m11 - Asus4 
 
Play it four times 
 
 Asus2  F#m11  Esus4 
|-0------0------0---| 
|-0------0------0---| 
|-2------2------2---| 
|-2------2------2---| 
|-0------x------2---| 
|-x------2------0---| 
 
Now the lead part. Same as above, play it four times.

That's pretty much it. Those are almost all the parts, barring any of the extra guitar in it. But, that should get you through it. I'll probably post most of the rest of the Bleed American album when I get some time.. especially after seeing the horrible, horrible A Praise Chorus tab I read earlier.
