It doesn't go to D at the end of the verse.

Take the repeat after each bar of the chorus, and just put it at the end. It threw me off at first. I would also move some notes from the E string on the A for clarity. Very good tab in my opinion.

Dude, you got the intro kind of right but the rest of the song isn't even close.
