good tab. the intro can be played differently but it sounds the same. e---1-----5-----] B------3-----5--] D---------------] G---------------] A---------------] E---------------]

yah u have pretty much everything right but i agree with rongold360's intro. cuz ive seen the 21 guns music video, ive seen them on snl, and ive seen them at a concert. u can see he doesnt use a pick for the intro and hes just plucking the strings. and i played that part and it sounds pretty good. but good tab!!
