the tab is awesome man! couple of things: i saw a live video where he plays the verse on Am e|-0- B|-1- G|-2- D|-2- A|-0- E|-0- instead of on 5-7-7. I personally think it is easier and sounds better on 5-7-7 but he wrote the song, not us haha. also on the first solo where you go into Dm the note on fret 8 sounds better if you play it on fret 7 as well as on the part after that.
