Hi, this is my first tab. i noticed nobody had got this song quite right so i 
studied how the band do it and i think this is 100% correct :) enjoy...

Standard tuning

Incase you dont know the C/G chord is the last chord you play in the riff, and the 
C/Gv (variation) is the same, you just take your finger off the D string.
