Good work, Hugorj! And thanks for the help!
I only had time for the intro and a little work on the verse and short fill between verse and chorus, so I did not check the chorus.

I agree the Intro (main) riff is F#,A,D,B. The intro is only this.

In the verse, I think there are sometimes additional quick notes between the primary (double) notes of the main riff. For example, after the two F#s, there is a quick E F# G# leading into the two As in the two bar fill between verse and chorus. I think I hear things like this in the verse also.
Cheers.

You are back to the ative, guys! Great work with final solo on Girl Panic, that's perfect (I played it for 5 times).

I'm waiting for Grrrrrr Machines!

I liked it, Sid. To me, the sound is sounding very good.

Is the chorus good? Does anyone hear more bass in the chorus? I think in the last bar the bass plays more F# (A9) after the two shown, but aside from that, I can't tell. I think maybe it is keyboards filling between the two notes but am not certain. Hugorj? Gerr? Ezzo?

I agree with Mari7, your version is very good. I made some adjustments in the chorus (to play live). Tell me what you think.

Tabs:
G|--7---7-----------9---9---11---11-------|
D|----------9---9-------------------------|
A|5---5-----------7---7---9----9----------|
E|--------7---7---------------------------|

I think this would work well, Hugorj. I would want to keep the rhythm intact (as in the first two measures of the chorus), so maybe the timing is something like this:

Tabs:
G:|--7---7---------|--9---9---11---11-|
D:|----------9---9-|------------------|
A:|5---5-----------|7---7---9----9----|
E:|--------7---7---|------------------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

or were you thinking something faster, like this:


Tabs:
G:|-7-7------------|-9-9-----11-11----|
D:|---------9-9----|------------------|
A:|5-5-------------|7-7-----9--9------|
E:|--------7-7-----|------------------|
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
