The main riff, in my opinion, sounds better like this. G|-12--12-9----9--9---------------------------------------------------------| D|9--9-----9-7--7-----7/----------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| Great tab though :)

You definitely got this right, but I find it easier to play like this. Just preference really.
