Play muted strings for the intro, then come in on Lee's riff:
G---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- -----------
G---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- -----------
D---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- sometimes: --3-3-5-5--
D---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- --3-3-5-5--
G---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- -----------
G---0-3-0---0--0---0-3-0--X-X-X-X-X-X-- -----------
Thurston just keeps up the same muted rhythm...
for the verse, palm mute this chord and chug away:

when shit goes crazy, lee hangs on this chord:
G--5--
G--5--

then, for the outro, T plays little stabs at this chord...
Eb----1----
Eb----0----
D-----0---- T plays that chord til the end...
