Regex is not really suited to parsing HTML, you should consider using a Perl module such as XML::Simple.

that said, you want a sed script that will strip everything within the angle brackets <...>
Code:
 
sed 's/<[^>]\+>//g' ~/tmp/tmp.txt
This is the first text
This is the second text
This is the third text
If counted
GOT IT... ����
This is the fourth text........
