what a loooonnnnnnnnggggggg tab. great job though.
The second riff should be played twice. If you listen to the opening of the song, the bass doesn't really start for two cycles of the guitar riff.

E-1h2-2-2-1h2-1h2-1h2-2-2-1h2-1h2-1h2-2-2...and the rest is allright
a sharp in chorus (8th fret) could also be played on the g string (3rd fret). this gives it much more clarity and again is much easier fingering.
otherwise a great tab for a great song. thanks to the tabber
