I found a lot of videos and tabs where making a common mistake in the main rift of this song, although it
sounds perfectly fine when playing, you can see when Tom plays it live that he plays it slightly differently.
Hop you enjoy

Your intro verse and chorus are both wrong.

And your also missing the 2nd verse.

Cheers guys your right, wasn't focussing when writing that bit but on the second verse i've listened to it over and over again I'm pretty sure that just the bass, live Tom just plays:D|-44444444-| Palm muted A|-22222222-|Palm muted for the whole thing but that bit isn't present in the studio track to the same extent so i think its better with just the bass on the second verse
