Excellent tab sir... perfect match with the DVD. Also-- skater710, screw off. You can hate these guys, but we sure as hell don't need to hear about it.

I am pretty sure this is rite just judging by the sound but i have never seen any other tab 4 this song so i am assuming it is correct. URNEVAB4ME

This is excellent. The only thing I noted is that right after the solo, instead of 2-0 on the E chord (which is Malcom's part), Cliff plays the repetitive 7 on the E chord. Other than that, this is 100% on the mark.
