I think the other tab is a bit weird, so I made another one... I think it sounds 
you be the judge.

Verse:
G------------------------------------------------------------------|
D------------------------------------------------------------------| (X2)
A----------------------------2-54----------------------------------|
E--22-2-22--55-5-55--00-0-00------22-2-22--55-5-55--0-000000000000-|

Chorus:
("Sink...or...swim...")
G-------------------------------------------------------------|
D-------------------------------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------------------------------|
E-22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222-

("wooohooohooo...")
G------------------------------------------------|
D------------------------------------------------| (X2)
A--------4-4-4-------7-7-7---------4-4-4-------7-|
E--2-2-2-------5-5-5---------2-2-2-------5-5-5---|

After "they all come tumbling down":
G-----------------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------|
E-222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222-

G--------------------------|
D--------------------------|
A------5-----5-----5-5/777-| (/ = slide up)
E--222----22----22---------|

("Yeah!..."):
G--------------------------|
D--------------------------| (X4)
A------555-444-------------|

Bridge:
G------|
D------|(played many times, listen to the song for number of times and rythm)
A------|
E--0h2-

During the guitar-solo-ish thingy, do this:
G--------------------------|
D--------------------------|
A----------------------5-5-|
E--2r----2r---2r---2-2-----| (r = rest)

Now repeat everything starting from the verse (NOT the intro), leave out the bridge, 
this instead of the bridge:
G-------------|
D-------------| (X4)
A-----------5-|
E-0-222-0-2---|

G------------------------|
D------------------------| (X2)
A------------------------|
E--0h2-0h2-0h2-0h2-0h2-2-|

End:
G------|
D------|
A------|
E--5\0- (\ = slide down)

This is a great song, played pretty fast, but really fun to play when you have learned 
Give it a try!
