Graham plays some minor cords underneath all that fuzz that go something like this:
E A D G B E
Bbm :x x x 15 14 13
f#m :x x x 11 10 9
G#m :x x x 13 12 11
the bass for the outro goes;
E
-6-6-6-4-6-6-6-4-6-6-6-4-6-2-3-4- (x2)
E
-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4
E-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-4-3-2--
A-------4s/6---------4s/6---------4s/6--------6-4--
E-2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6------ (x2)

E-2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6------ (x2)
A-------4s/6---------4s/6-
E-2s/6---------2s/6-------
For the end bit after the sort of bass solo alex changes between:
this riff:
E
-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4-
And this riff:
A-------4s/6-
E-2s/6-------
and graham plays this on his guitar:
D------------4-6------------4---------
A------4-4-6----------4-4-6---6-6p4---
E-4s/6-----------4s/6---------------6-
if you hadn't guessed damon is singing;
space is the place x repeat to fade
however as far as i know he dosn't sing it on the live version.
