If you really want you could play the entire intro on the same E but the it sounds a lot better 
(and is played) like this:

Intro:
G----------------------------------------------
D-----14-----14------14------------------------
A----------------------------------------------
E---0-----12-----12------12---14/0-------------

Verse:
G----------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------
A------7-7-7-7--------45-----------------------
E--------------3333-55-------------------------

Transition:
G--------------------12--------12--------------
D-----------------12--------12-----------------
A--79-7-5---514--------14--------------------
E----------------------------------------------

Solo:
G----------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------
A---------------------55555555-----------------
E---55555555-77777777--------------------------
and then repeat
G----------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------
A--77777777-9999-5555--------------------------
E----------------------------------------------

Order:
5xIntro
5xVerse
Transition
3xVerse
Transition
5xSolo
4xIntro
3xVerse
Transition
Solo out

The slide in the transition is hard to get right but sounds great when you get it.  The order 
might not be perfect but it's easy to figure out.
