I'm hearing this for the main riff: e|------------------------------------------------------- B|------------------------------------------------------- G|------------------------------------------------------- D|------5-----------------2------------------------------ A|-5h7------7---5---7------------------------------------ E|----0---0---0---0---3p0-------------------------------- Just one extra open E there, with that one it's on all the upstrokes through the riff.

Why over complicate it for yourselves? Not really a correction, but I think it makes it easier...The intro riff can be playing pretty much open...It sounds fine both ways, but if you do it this way you don't have to move your hand as much for the G to E pull-off E|--------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------- G|--------0------------------------------------------ D|-0-h2-------2---0---2-----2~~---------------------- A|--------------------------------------------------- E|------0---0---0---0---3p0--------------------------

Everyone is close but Billy plays this song in open E tuning! E B E G# B E . Just check out any live vids on youtube! Good luck and good playing.
