The following part is played relatively fast, so i recommend practise those scales to
killer chops...

okay, unfortunately thats all i have... hopefully, that should get you started, the
in the solo is spaced out for legibility, and it played quite fast, thats why it hard for me
tab it... i will hopefully have the rest of it done soon...

The main riff isn't played on the open strings at all. Watch any video of the band and you will see how he's playing the D, G and C notes at the fifth fret, not open. It just doesn't sound right without the ability to left-hand mute those notes. Jazzy chord at the start of the verse missing. Chorus chords don't coda - there are different inversions in the 2nd half of the chorus.

this is awesome!!! :-D

wikidly done man, this is great Vernon Reid is indeed one of the worlds best guitarists....
