Good tab! If I could add a couple of points:
During the verse (and at the end of choruses too), instead of just Am, play (in a bar) Am 2 beats then Bm/A 2 beats, 3 times (3 bars) before Am for a whole bar.
You can play the Am-Bm/A run as X02210 - X04430, or better as X07555-X09777.
Similarly, on the Dm, you can play for each of the 2 bars Dm7 and Em7 as XX0211 - XX0433, or better as XX0565 - XX0787. (Yes, the Em7/D played these ways is the same as a G/D).
Lastly, most of the E7 endings in the song are really E7#9 which really adds the punch with the high G note! Play as 020133 or better as 076780.
Hope this may add to your fun and enjoyment of this terrific cover!
