Intro
Bass (Russell)
Right my guess is that even thought there isn't a traditional bass (Russell doesn't play
one live), I think the bass in the song is just bending a low C back and forth between
C# like so

Lead Guitar (Chris)
Right that weird noise that sounds like a saw can be recreated on a guitar by
experimenting around on a lot of different effects on a pedal (maybe a lot of wah or
reverb) but
again its just a C, and this little note recurs fairly frequently throughout the song

It goes on for eight beats essentially
Verse
Chris doesn't do much in the first verse, but in the second i'm pretty sure he just
shreds (or tremelo picks) a C

he then plays this little riff after tom sings "take and you shall receive" and in the
second verse its "you're a secret only I know", but you can play it whenever really
