I think it goes something like this... Tune your Whammy up 2 octaves, and just play this:
 
A-riff
E|--7+-------10--|
B|--7+-----------|
G|--7+-----------| + = 2 octaves up(toe down)
D|--7+-----------| o = normal pitch (toe up)
A|---------------| / =push at the same moment of playing the note(s)
D|---------------|
  o/+         o
 
Repeat it until this part: (00:29)
 
B part
E|-------------------|----------------|----------------|-----------------|
B|-------------------|----------------|----------------|-----------------|
G|-------14----14----|----13----13----|----12----12----|----11----11-----|
D|-12-12----12---12--|-12----12----12-|-12----12----12-|-12----12----12--| X2
A|-------------------|----------------|----------------|-----------------|
D|-------------------|----------------|----------------|-----------------|
 
At 00:48 the killing riff of the chorus:
 
C-riff
E|--------------------|--------------------|
B|--------------------|--------------------|
G|--------------------|--------------------|
D|-----------------3--|-----------------3--|
A|-----------3--5-----|-----------3--5-----|
D|--0--3--5-----------|--0--3--5-----------|
 
Then again the A-riff, and the B part, and at 01:55 strum the strings putting your
hand on them to produce the classic percussion sound until the chorus arrives! (02:01)
At 02:20 just mess around and play the 4th string along with notes of D major scale
on the 3rd string, 7 fret (or something like that...:s)
Finally, at 02:33, when Zack wishpers "It's land or death" just rock on with the Chorus
until 03:02, where Tom just does (I think) alternate sounds pushing the Whammy set two
up at the same moment he plays harmonics on the 19th fret... something like this:
 
A-riff
E|--19+----19+--|--19+----19+-|
B|--19+----19+--|--19+----19+-|
G|--19+----19+--|--19+----19+-| + = 2 octaves up(toe down)
D|--19+----19+--|--19+----19+-| o = normal pitch (toe up)
A|--------------|-------------|
D|--------------|-------------|
   o/+ /o  +      o/+/o   +
 
Hope it works and it helps! See ya mates!
