Jos, this is what I'm hearing... not tab, but you'll get the idea.

Fret 15, hit strings 4 and 5. Step on A pedal. Hit those two stings again.
Fret 14, pick s4 and s5
Fret 13, pick s4 and s5
Fret 15, pick strings 5 and 6 and quickly step on AB pedals (as fast as you can after picking)
Fret 14, pick s5 and s6
Fret 13, pick s5 and s6
Fret 8, s5, step on A pedal, s4, s5A, release A pedal, s6B.

You could also do the section that's written on strings 5 and 6 on strings 4 and 5 (at fret 13 with E-strings lowered). You would need to pick at 12 and then quickly slide up to fret 13.

However, I think he's actually playing it on strings 5 and 6 as written; if you listen closely, you'll hear that distinct sound of AB being quickly engaged together as opposed to a bar slide up to the fret. But it's easier to play on strings 4 and 5... which is a very common run and sounds almost the same.

Good luck.
