I've no idea what the other tab of this song is, but it's not right. Here's a pretty much 100% accurate version:
Play this through in order, following the instructions as you go.
Intro
Look at your young men fighting...

And end with:

There's no bass for a few bars at this point. When Axl sings
"So I never fell for Vietnam...", play the following once:
Gb|------------------------------------------------------------
Db|------------------------------------------------------------
Ab|-----------2~----------------------------2~----------3-3-5-5
Eb|-3~-----------------0----0-----3~----------------0----------
Chorus
Play all of this twice:
Gb|--------------------------------------------
Db|--------------------------------------------
Ab|---------2--2-2--------7p6p5--7-7--7-7p6p5--
Eb|-3--3-3----------0--------------------------
Gb|--------------------------------------------
Db|--------------------------------------------
Ab|---------2--2-2----------3-3-5-5------------
Eb|-3--3-3----------0-0-0----------------------
Over Slash's second solo, play the chorus again twice, but replacing
Gb|--------- Gb|-------
Db|--------- Db|-------
Ab|-3-3-5-5- with Ab|-3---5-
Eb|--------- Eb|-------
And ending with this after the second repetition:
Gb|----
Db|----
Ab|----
Eb|-0~-
Look at the blood we're spilling...
Gb|---------------------------------------------------
Db|---------------------------------------------------
Ab|-------------------------7h9-7---------------------
Eb|-3----0----3--2----0-----------------3-2-0--3--2---
Now play the verse once, then the chorus twice, followed by this
outro played four times:
