Outro : Verse chords!
Enjoy it! I found the other versions really confusing, so I decided to tab down the way I play it , including the little riff. Have fun playing it but just before , listen to the song (Pilgrim album track 6) to get the chords place right because I think it's a pretty hard one to play , so enjoy it!
