Verses: You could improvise a bit here - as long as you play these 
chords or similar. I doubt he played it exactly the same way every 
time.

Play intro riff again, then the guitar solo. 

I have not placed notes in bars properly, just tabbed them out 
clearly. Note the 'sustains' in the second row where notes overlap. 
There are so many versions of this track, I have taken the important 
bits from each. Use lots of delay!

If you were playing 'live' you could leave out the last flurry in order 
to get back up the 'board for the bends up to the imaginary 24th fret 
( an E note). The delay effect would disguise this.

Play verse once more and the signature intro riff a few times. Then 
comes the famous seagull cry finale.
