Radio Friendly Unit Shifter  Nirvana

I've seen a few interesting version of Radio Friendly Unit Shifter by
Nirvana, and so far I haven't seen one that I could see was correct.
I have tabbed' out this one from the Live New Years' concert from a year
ago. I hope someone can use it..
(Remember, that if you want to be correct, tune your instrument down
half a step. I tabbed it out in the chords you're "supposed" to be
playing.)

"Radio Friendly Unit Shifter" by Nirvana
tune down 1/2 step (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
p = pull off
h = hammer on
the intro is something like this but with some weird effects. this is the
closest i could get:
 
 ---------------11p10h11p10--
 --11p10h11p10---------------
 -----------------------------
 -----------------------------
 -----------------------------
 -----------------------------

then the main riff:
[B5] [F#5] [A#5] [F5] 
 
 -------------------------------------------------
 -------------------------------------------------
 --5--5---------------4---4--4-------------------
 --5--5---5----5--5---4---4--4--4--4--4--4---4--
 --3--3---5----5--5---2---2--2--4--4--0--2---4--
 ---------3----3--3--------------2--2--0--2---2--

that last chord (F5) is played out a little longer than the other chords
(listen to the cd for timing). plus, i'm not sure if that chord in the
middle of F5 is what i have listed or 044xxx, but it shouldn't really
matter.
bridge:
[B5] [D#5] [G#5] [F#5]  
 
 --------------------
 --------------------
 --5----9------------
 --5----9----7----5--
 --3----7----7----5--
 ------------5----3--

there's a slide between B5 and D#5. and on the last line of the bridge, only
B5 and D#5 are played.
to even mention the verse is a joke.
