Clearly wrong. chorus wrong, so not complete for me, otherwise it's cool. Missing maybe the second part. there is a go tut on youtube from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EUzjuFoFqM&index=69&list=WL&spfreload=10

Lack of formatting. Lack of accuracy. Tab incomplete. Clearly wrong. The chorus is missing and it is lacking accuracy in how many notes, over simplified thus making it far from exact.

The part were he says ooooooohhh is something like ( based on the video ) correct me if i'm wrong :-s0 0 0 3 5 0 0 3 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 02 2 2 2 40 0 0 0 0 later edit: Sorry this is mirrored so the chords are EADGBe from top to bottom not eADGBE
