Hey, not bad at all. Just a few little things. First of all, there's no such thing as a Dsus3 chord, what you want is a Dsus2 chord which is played the way you have it written on the tab (x00230 sounds best if you leave out the low E string) Next, i'm almost certain that all the F#'s in the song should be F#m's. Also, in my opinion, it sounds better to play F#m's instead of the F#m7's as well, but i'm not sure which is 100% correct in that case. One last thing, for an Em7 chord you have it tabbed as (020230) which is actually an E7sus4 chords which sounds a little off. Go with (020000 or 022033) for an Em7, but i think a plain E sounds best (022100). Overall it's a great tab, congrats.

Try 2x0220 instead of the F#m's, though. It sounds better.

agreed with above, definitely about using F#m instead of F#. but overall, fantastic work; i give it 5 stars.
