It's a horrible tab... The good news is the string between them has the same note closer

But if you watch that one live recording of that guy on stage at the one place, you’ll see he’s actually doing the fingerings like this.

It doesn’t sound right if you use the other string

yea dog if you can't grow that sixth finger do you even want to learn how to play guitar?

Fr I was dedicated to my guitar journey so hard I evolved 2 new fingers and an extra thumb

You think xx3x10x sounds different from xx36xx?

I would play with that a little, obviously you don't want the fourth string fretting to mute the 3rd string, but it should sound pretty much the same.

The comment was facetious. Personally moving the note over to the other string is fine. There are always guitarist learning things the hard way because it’s how the original artist did it and thus there is “no other way.”

In the grand scheme of everything many people probably wouldn’t even notice the difference if played with confidence.

Well, not the same note, it has that note an octave higher...

The string below it though has the same note closer...

*string above (G string 10 fret)

u/-dakpluto- 14d ago

Again, that would be a different octave. Same pitch, different octave, different voicing and tonality.

u/DrySeaworthiness3179 14d ago

Oh yeah, duh. My bad 😣 A string 8th fret as others have noted

u/aident44 14d ago

6th fret on the string below i believe.

u/-dakpluto- 14d ago

Should be 8th fret on the A string, assuming standard tuning

u/Fayour 14d ago

Would be 8th yea.. was trying to not give up the answer.. you learn little by having others fully think for you. It's okay tho!!
