Saw all the tabs were wrong?.

If you want to play it like the studio version here is how

Chords:

D    A   E
--x--           --x--        --x--
--x--           --x--        --x--
--x--           --x--        --x--
--7--           --2--        --9--
--9--           --4--        --11--
-10--           --5--        --12--

I would advise to listen to the track, but He starts out playing the first verse on the 5th string only
(following the chord progression of D--A-E sliding up and down the neck).

Also, I'm pretty sure he's using a modulation delay effect on the guitar on the lead parts 

You mostly will be strumming between the 5th and 6th strings, but I've included the I note on the 4th string
for those of you who want to get creative

Call it magic

I want to fall, fall so hard
              D
And I call it magic
