Play it once through normal for the intro, then the 2nd time around stop at the (*)

fill 2.

I saw them live on MTV 2 and its actually the bass that does the strumming but here it is anyway:
E------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------ repeat throughout whole song
D--7-xxxx--3-xxxx--8--xxxx--5-xxxx---------
A--7-xxxx--3-xxxx--8--xxxx--5-xxxx---------
E--5-xxxx--1-xxxx--10-xxxx--3-xxxx---------
The guitar come in playing the open e string for a while and then adds a couple of extra notes. Just play around with frets 5, 7 and 8 will lots of hammering and pulling off and you will sort of working it. I could go into more detail but its not worth it.
