The bass and guitar play this part in unison. The underlying
chord would be D#5.

In the verse it does the same riff, except it just sticks to the
chords for the first half of the verse. The second half of the
verse is the same as the intro riff above.

The chorus is the same riff.
Just before the bridge, after the 2nd chorus, hold on the D#5.
The bridge/outro chord progression is:
D#m7, G#m7, B, E, F#, C#, G#, A#.
For simplicity I will just tab out the power chords because of the
different hand positions of these chords in drop D tuning.
D#5 G#5 B5 E5 F#5 C#5 G#5 A#5
