Lack of accuracy. I believe the main riff is played on 12th fret of the D string, the notes in the chorus don't seem to match up with the song and the solo should be on the D string rather than G

Yes, solo plays on the 4th string. And the chorus I think this: [tab] E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--5-----------------3-----------------2-----------------2----------------- A|-----5--5--5--5--5-----5--5--5--5--5-----5--5--5--5--5-----0--0--0--0--0-- D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--8-----------------7-----------------6-----------------7----------------- A|-----5--5--5--5--5-----3--3--3--3--3-----2--2--2--2--2-----0--0--0--0--0-- D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- [/tab]
