It's a little hard to figure it out because the notes are a little muddy. This is just a rough estimate.) There is another synth burst at 2:55. It sounds like one chord being bent by a pitch shifter, so I just bend the living shit out a chord that is shaped like x-x-16-18-19-x. It's some sort of F# chord.
