Ok, heres the 1st accurate an complete tab for For Sure. It says
its live but it was tabbed from the cd and NME vid/Reading vid, so
it has extra bits to the cd. Im sure it is like 100% correct.

Guitar 1: (play fast)

Alternatively, live, Guitar 1 (Lee) plays this instead of
the first and third repeats of the riff above to replace
the 10, 8, 8 section played on the A string:

If you don't like that then you could always follow the intro
structure, however the sound difference isn't great due to the
distortion, but it matches the cd better:
Play this 3 times.

Ideally you could split this up so 1 guitar does one version an
the other does the one above.
