This is right. That's all I gotta say.
If the chord sounds wrong, then it's the voicing.
All of the chords should be correct, the song is just using different inversions.
So instead of the fifth being the highest voice in the chord,
it adds the seventh above that. Stuff like that.
Yay music theory! :P
This is my first tab, but not my first rodeo in regards to transcribing.
If you do see any errors, feel free to tell me. I'm not all that great at
guitar, so the structure of the chords might not be that great.
I just wrote what I heard.

As a side note: the optional A7's don't always happen. Usually it's just going from Gm
1st inversion to the 2nd inversion. But the A7's add color to the chords that sounds okay.
Have fun! I love this song. And Brendon Urie. ;)
