Here are the fills you said you were missing. I'm currently tuned in drop D so i tabbed them in Drop D, so all you gotta do is change them to C# G|---8---8-10-12-8-10-12-8-\---------------------------------------| D|-8---8-----------------------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------6---6-8-10-6-8-10-6-\---------| D|---------------------------------8---8---------------------------|

The bridge isn't quite right. This is already in Eb Drop D (C#), so don't move it a step up.

I don't know if they are perfect, but they sound good when I play them with the song, so here they are.
