Trouble playing 1/2 Full

I've tuned my guitar correctly but I'm having some trouble figuring out how to play Stone's parts with the right timing.

Here's the tab....

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/p/p ... ll_tab.htm

I can play the chords fine, it just doesn't sound right when I'm trying to play along. I don't think i'm getting the rhythm right.

Any suggestions?

    i think the first 4 chords are wrong in the tab
    the weird part is there is only 1 version for this song on many tab sites
    other songs have many
    the rest of the chord parts seem right
    the chords at the bottom of page for - wont someone change the world- seem right
    it's the verse that seems missing
    funny when i try to find the right way to play the verse i get confused with red mosquito

    I'm going to my first guitar lesson this week and that ultimate guitar website looks like a good basic learning site.

    It is! I tend to use it for basics, then figure the rest out on my own.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
