I think the guitar stops until about 1:51, then this is played with plenty of distortion:

Straight after:
VERSE 2 starts after you've played the next part twice.

CHORUS:

I'm not entirely sure what the strumming pattern is for this part but I've had a 
go and I think it's near enough...

The next guitar part is after this synth 'interlude'.
(which I've tabbed because it sounds good if you pluck the strings rather than use a pick).
If you wanted to play the next synth bit it goes something like this:

e|--------------------------|
B|-----------9--6---8-9-6---|
G|-------5-8------8---------|
D|---6-8--------------------| X3
A|--------------------------|
E|--------------------------|

e|-------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------9--6---8-9-6-----------9--6-----------|
G|-------5-8------8-------------5-8------8---------|
D|---6-8--------------------6-8------------8-6-----| Repeat until the end.
A|---------------------------------------------8---|
E|-------------------------------------------------|


The last guitar part comes in at the same time the second lot of synth above does.

e|---------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------| Repeat until the end.
A|---------1-3---4-3-6-------------1-3---4-3---------|
E|---1-1-4-------------4-1---1-1-4-----------4-1-1---|


Aaaand that's it.
