We have an official Hero tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Please note:  These are not invididual notes, but chord/note changes.
So, pleaes don't take this as each strum, but each chord will have multiple strums that you can figure out :)
Timing marks are from their video

If you have a 24 fret, I am guessing you end with 23, but I'm not sure... lol
