I would add my comment to the last one if I could, but I can't find a way to modify a comment, anyway. There are 2 things I believe should be modified. However, I base myself on the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qgyy-JzbwNU version, so if you listen to another version, this may sound ridiculous. So, you should modify the breakdown From B B B C e|---------------------------------------| B|-X--X-X---X--X-X---X--X-X--X-X_X_X_X_X-| G|-9--9-9---9--9-9---9--9-9--5-5-5-5-5-5-| (x3) D|-9--9-9---9--9-9---9--9-9--5-5-5-5-5-5-| A|-7--7-7---7--7-7---7--7-7--3-3-3-3-3-3-| E|-7--7-7---7--7-7---7--7-7--3-3-3-3-3-3-| TO 1st Guitar B B B C e|---------------------------------------| B|-X--X-X---X--X-X---X--X-X--X-X_X_X_X_X-| G|-4--4-4---4--4-4---4--4-4--5-5-5-5-5-5-| (x3) D|-4--4-4---4--4-4---4--4-4--5-5-5-5-5-5-| A|-2--2-2---2--2-2---2--2-2--3-3-3-3-3-3-| E|-2--2-2---2--2-2---2--2-2--3-3-3-3-3-3-| 2nd Guitar E E E F e|---------------------------------------------| B|-X--X-X---X--X-X---X--X-X--X-X_X_X_X_X-X--X--| G|-9--9-9---9--9-9---9--9-9--10-10-10-10-10-10-| (x3) D|-9--9-9---9--9-9---9--9-9--10-10-10-10-10-10-| A|-7--7-7---7--7-7---7--7-7--8--8--8--8--8--8--| E|-7--7-7---7--7-7---7--7-7--8--8--8--8--8--8--| AND Modify the Post-Breakdown, as we may call it From G E D V---(ends on an upstroke.) e|-9--9--9--9--9--9--9/7--7---7--7-/5-5-5-| Let note ring.

Good tab. Someone should tab this in guitar pro.

I tabbed it out like this and I put ACOUSTIC because this is how he played it with an ACOUSTIC guitar...OPEN STRINGS AND ALL.
