Architects-an Open Letter to Myself

Still a great song, only this time I've tabbed all of it :3

C# standard tuning.

Intro:

C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|-----------------------------------------------8-------------------|
E |--------5------------5------------5---------------5----------------|
B |----7------7-----5------5-----5------5-----5-----------------------|
F |----7------------5------------3------------7-----------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|----------------------------------5------------8-------------------|
E |--------5------------5---------------5------------5----------------|
B |----7------7-----5------5-----5------------5-----------------------|
F |----7------------5------------3------------7-----------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

That whole bit twice.

The second guitar does this over the first bit (I think)-there's some delay on this:

C#|--8----8---10---12---15--------------------------------------------|
G#|--10---8---8----8----13--------------------------------------------|
E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|x4

Then there's a quiet break (or a chorus, not really sure what it counts as...)-it's just 
single notes

C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|-------------------8-----------------------------------------------|
E |---5----7----5---------4-------------------------------------------|
B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then drums come in and the guitar starts to get a bit more interesting.

First guitar does this (I don't think the notes in brackets are there, but it sounds 
fine-I daresay better-with them):

C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|--8-------8-------8-------8-------8-------8-------8-------8--------|
E |------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5----|
B |---(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/a/architects/an_open_letter_to_myself_tab_ver_2.html ]
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|--8-------8-------8-------8-------6-------6-------5-------5--------|
E |------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5-------5----|
B |---(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-(5)-|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Meanwhile the second guitar is doing something similar:

C#|--8----8----8----8----8----8----8----8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---|
G#|----10---10---10---10---10---10---10---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8-|
E |---------------------------------------------------------------------|
B |---------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |---------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------|

C#|-15----------15----------15----------15----------------------------|
G#|-------13----------13----------13----------13----------------------|
E |----14----14----14----14----14----14----14----14-------------------|
B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

C#|-13----------13----------12----------12----------------------------|
G#|-------13----------13----------13----------13----------------------|
E |----14----14----14----14----14----14----14----14-------------------|
B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Those two parts are played over each other four times.

After that there's a break before everything kicks in with a bunch of stuff

C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E |-------5---------7-------------------------------------------------|
B |-------7---------9-------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

The bunch of stuff-which is basically a lot of tremolo picking:

C#|---15---22---20---19----8---10-------------------------------------|
G#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
F |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

That repeats itself until the end of the song; it sounds like the second guitar might be 
doing something slightly different, but with the same notes and an octave lower.

Pretty easy song considering some of their other stuff, but doesn't detract
from how good it is. As always C&C appreciated!
