It does this ONCE. There is a second guitar that plays the high part on this ONE part, but it can be successfully played with only one guitar as follows:
This is the pre-chorus
E------3--------6--------3---3--|
B--------------------------1---1|
G----5---5----8---8--8/3--------|
D----5--------8------8/3--------|
A----3--------6--------1--------|
D-----------3/6-----------------|
THEN the rest of the pre-chorus CAN be played as tabbed above, though I prefer to play chords because it is, after all, two guitars playing. The rest of the pre-choruses do not include this first part.
Now this is VERY IMPORTANT. The chorus does NOT go as tabbed above. It goes like this (and if you'll listen, you'll get it too):
