We have an official Decode tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Artist: Paramore
Song: Decode (Acoustic)
 
(This tab is for only the rhythm guitar in the song.  Most of the lead
tabs are good so look them up.  Most tabs I have seen have not been
accurate for the rhythm.  This one is spot on)
 
(Use this video for reference:
