Im pretty sure that this tab is almost perfect but by listening closer it sounds that the bass note is played half as many times. in the intro for example strum the 6th string third fret on the first and third beats only, and that pattern repeats through the song im sure.

So is it more like the picking pattern for Guaranteed? Travis picking style?

Yeah I agree with RLucci - if you see videos of Eddie doing it, it looks as though the bass is played every other time. Other than that, a perfect tab, thank you :)
