Almost perfect, however, I think it's easier to change this: |----| |---| |----| |---| |----| |-8-| |-13-| |-x-| |--x-| |-6-| |--0-| to this: |---| Brian does this live. An example of this is on the Soulmates Never Die DVD. But apart from that, this is one of the best tabs I have ever seen.

So my guitar is in Eb tuning, I assume you meant that when you said "Drop Eb". I was just playing along with the song, and everything needs to be transposed up 1/2 step. except the open E string. You tabbed this out for a regularly tuned guitar, minus the low E.

The tab is great, but you need to do one of the following: 1) tune-up half a step with a low D# (not E#) as shown in the TAB and move the finger positions one fret towards the nut or 2) ignore the string tunings on the TAB and keep a standard tuned guitar with a D# low string and keep finger positions (any resonant drone notes from pen strings will sound half step out), or 3) tune to drop D and put a capo on fret one and take the finger position from the nut; not the capo. This is not a criticism, just an observation to avoid confusion for people like me who can hardly tell if something is in or out of tune.
