Heres a video of me playing it to use as reference (it should sound like that up to speed... hell maybe
better ;) - : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi6CZg2nISo
feel free to check it out for picking patterns timing and all that good stuff
Tuning: D# A# D# G# C# D# (its basically dadgad Sharp tuning with the B string tuned UP to a C instead
of down to an A)
I recommend using distortion, slight delay and reverb for best results as far as amp setting go

IMPORTANT NOTE - :
As you're pulling your whammy bar back up after diving it down on the last note above
hit the 6th fret of your D# string (lowest string) with your middle finger and fret the note (hold it ringing)

A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|the end of this section
D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Note: lead guitar Gtr. 1 plays harmonics but while muting the strings keep your fretting finger the same way
it is while playing the harmonics and palm mute only slightly to get the best percussive sound possible
..... after a while play
Gtr. 2
D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| repeat some more..
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| just have to memorize it from

G#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Harmonic notes with delay
D#|--+5////+3-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| pick 7 times
D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Slide finger up slowly
Note: slide slowly while picking the first 6 times and on the 7th there should be a noticeable jump difference
in pitch and the harmonic you're looking to hit should be slightly behind the 3rd fret

-------------------------------- The grand finale -----------------------------------
In this section you basically play the main lick again but this time around using each note 2 times instead :)
if this proves to be tricky use an effect to compensate such as phaze delay or fuzz

Whammy bar down
As you're raising your tremolo arm back up hit the 5th fret harmonic with your middle finger
once again on the lowest string D# and let it ring out until it kind of dies down in volume
Also try to mute the other strings as you hit the harmonic
