Richie plays octave chords, Jon plays the bass notes via power chords.

Lead (add the octaved notes on the G string, easier to read this way since the forums' font screws up tablature over multiple lines):
A |-6-6-6-6-5-5-6-6-|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|

It's usually notated as a dotted quarted note rhythm in the first bar, so the D# is only played 3 times, but it's hard to tell with the fuzzy tone. These are the correct notes anyway - D#, D, D#, g, D, C.

Rhythm are power chords - C5, D#5, A#5, G#5

You can play it all on one guitar - play the lead notes on the H string while holding down the power chords; so 4 3 4 on the H string over a C5 (making it a Cm, Csus2, Cm), 8 over the D#5 (making it a regular D#), 6 over a A#5 (so 6 on the H, 7 on the G, 8 on the D + power chord below), then down a 4 on the H string with the G# notes (5 on the G, 6 on the D) to make it a full chord + barred power chord)

I hope you get the idea, kinda hard to describe without a tab or pics. Technically speaking, it's Cm Csus2 Cm, D#, A#, G#
