Yeah this tab is correct. Its just that all the other tabs are on the E string instead of the A they both sound fine but this tab is the better choice for exact playing like on the lp.

First of all, all of you who think its wrong, keep it to yourself-I'm sure he doesn't care you people say if its wrong. Second, the notes are right, but he used some of the wrong notation. In the verse, I think you meant pulloff not hammer-on. For the interlude, you don't really need the 0h4, if you take that out, it will most likely sound the same. Lastly, the bridge is good, but you can also play it on low E string, the A string, and the D string. E| 7 7 7 10 A| 9 9 9 7 8 9 D| 7 8 9 For the third chord (the 7,9) use can either do that or just the top note (7.)

shut up stupids, this tab is pretty good, the only wrong thing is there is no slides
