Settle Down Tab

Couldn't find a decent tab for this song so I thought i'd try and
figure it out and post one. Based on live versions and the studio version.
Not 100% accurate to the original but sounds pretty close to me.

Intro:

Guitar 1 (Matty)
E|-------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------|
G|--9p7--x-7-x--9--9p7--x-7-x--9-------|
D|-------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------|

The mutes aren't necessary put they make the riff more funky, like the actual song

Guitar 2 (Adam)
E|-------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------|
G|----------7----------------7---------|
D|--7h9--x----x---7--7h9--x----x---7---|
A|-------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------|


Verse:

Guitar 2
E|--------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------|
G|--7--x--6--7--6--7p6--7--x--6---|
D|--------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|

Guitar 1
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_1975/settle_down_tab_ver_2.html ]
E|--10--12--14--------------|
B|--12--14--15--15----------|
G|--12--14--14--14----------|
D|--12--14--16--12----------|
A|--10--12--14--------------|
E|--------------------------|
    Guitar 1 plays the second and fourth of these chords for the first half the verse, then:

E|--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------|
D|--12--x--11--12--11--12p11--12--11----|
A|--------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|
    in the same pattern as guitar 2.

Chorus:
    Same as intro

Verse 2:
Same as verse 1 but guitar 1 doesn't play the chords for the first half.

Chorus

Bridge:
The synth riff that is played can be played as
E|----------------------|---------------------------|
B|--12--10--------------|--12--10-------------------|
G|----------11----------|----------11---------------|
D|--------------16--14--|--------------16--14--12---|
A|----------------------|---------------------------|
E|----------------------|---------------------------|

Verse:
E|--10--12--14----------|
B|--12--14--15--15------|
G|--12--14--14--14------|
D|--12--14--16--12------|
A|--10--12--14----------|
E|----------------------|

These four chords are played and then Guitar 1 and 2 play the two verse riffs

Chorus

Outro:
The synth bit is played again


This is my first tab and it took me a while to figure it out so any feedback is much appreciated
