This one was tough to tab out.  This tab isn't 100% note for note, and I'll explain why
but I covered the major parts that you need to play the song.

Intro:
CE|-------------------------|---|
A--------1----3-----1--------|
F---------------------2p0-0--|
C----0h2---/3---3\2----------|
FE|-------------------------|---|
CE|-------------------------|---|

Verse Riff:
CE|-------------------------|-------|
AE|-------------------------|-------|
F------0-0--0---0-0---0-2p0---0--|
C----2--------2-------------2----|
FE|-------------------------|-------|
CE|-------------------------|-------|

During the verses, this is repeated three times with a fill to end it.  I wasn't going
sit here and tab out every single one of them for a few reasons...they got lost in the
so I couldn't hear them, I simply couldn't figure out what Rich was playing, and I don't
want to waste my time tabbing them out note for note.  Open tunings allow for a lot of fun
improvisational fills, so you can have fun making up your own parts.  Here are the two 
the vocals come in, and a third one from the first verse to give you an idea of what to play...

CE|-------------------------|------------| |E|-------------------------|-------| 
A--------------3----------------------| |E|-------------------------|-------| 
F--------0h2/4---4\2p0-2p0------------| |------0h2/3--2/3\2p0---0h2p0----|

Figure A:
E|----0--0---------------|
B|----1--1------0-0-0-0--|
G|----2--0------0-0-0-0--|
D|----3--2---------------|
A|-------0--3b4----------|
E|-----------------------|

This is played in between the first two verses

Chorus (with slide):
CE|-------------------------|-|    |E|-------------------------|--|
A----------------/5----5\--|    |E|-------------------------|--|
F----/3\2p0-/2-0-/5--5--\--|    |--/3-/3-0--/3-/3\2p0----0--|
C-----------/2---/5--------| x3 |---------------------/3----|
FE|-------------------------|-|    |E|-------------------------|--|
CE|-------------------------|-|    |E|-------------------------|--|

The first measure is played three times, on the third repeat, add the second measure to
end.  The whole figure is played twice.

Solo Rhythm:
CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-|
AE|-------------------------|--------------------3--5--|
F------0-0--0---0-0---0-2p0---0----0-0--0-----3--5--|
C----2--------2-------------2----2--------2p0-3--5--| x3
FE|-------------------------|--------------------3--5--|
CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-|

C---------------------|    |E|-------------------------|-|
A------0-0--0-0-3--5--|    |----0-0--0--0---0-0--0--0-|
F------0-0--0-0-3--5--|    |----0-0--0--0---0-0--0--0-|
C----2----------3--5--| x3 |--2-----------2-----------|
F---------------3--5--|    |E|-------------------------|-|
C---------------------|    |E|-------------------------|-|

I couldn't really make out what was being played during the last measure of the solo
but this'll do just fine.

Interlude:
Figure B
C----0----0----0-----0-----0----0--|
A----1----8----10----10/12--10--8--|
F----0----0----0-----0------0---0--|
C----3----9----10----10/12--10--9--|
F---------0----0-----0------0------|
CE|-------------------------|---------|

The interlude is played at a much slower tempo then the rest of the song.  This is played
once and is followed by

Figure C:
CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-----------------|
A----10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--------12--12--12--12--12\--|
FE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-----------------|
C------10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--/12-------12--12--12-----|
FE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-----------------|
CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------|-----------------|

CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------||
A------10--10--10--10--11p10--10------10\-------8--|
FE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------||
C----10--10--10--10--10-----10----/10--------/9----|
FE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------||
CE|-------------------------|E|-------------------------||

then these chords:
E|---0-----0-----0-----0--|
B|---10----12----10----8--|
G|---0-----0-----0-----0--|
D|---10----12----10----9--|
A|---0-----0-----0-----0--|
E|------------------------|

Figure C is repeated, with some slight variation, then this is played

Figure D:
E|----0----0--0---0---0--|----------------------|
B|----10---10/12--10--8--|--12\-----------------|
G|----0----0--0---0---0--|--12\----/3\2p0----0--|
D|----10---10/12--10--9--|--12\---------/3------|
A|----0----0--0---0---0--|----------------------|
