Great tab. Two things though, the pre-chorus is played an octave higher so it would be, A|-9(x16)-11(x16)-| x2 and the verse should go something like A|-66-644-422-211-199-988-866-664-4-| x3 (no double digit fret numbers) That's all I think that needed to be changed. Since there was nothing big that was wrong with the tab, I rated it 5 stars.

the verse is wrong and incomplete. each fret is played 3 times, in a 66 644 422 211 099 988 866 pattern
