Tab for Brown Eyed Girl intro??

Hi everyone,

Wondering if anyone can help me with this -

I'm struggling to work out Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl - the intro in particular - it sounds like 2 strings being played at the same time?? I would be most grateful if anyone knows the tab for this - thanks in advance :D

P.S. Does anyone know who played guitar on this track and what guitar it was played on - it sounds sweet 8)

Thanks,

Daniel

here's some tab I have of it - it's been a long time since I played it, so I'm not sure how accurate it is (also, spacing is a little off)

G C

--7--8----10----8---7----|12--13----15----13----12---------
--8-10----12---10---8----|13--15----17----15----13---------
-------------------------|--------------------------------- repeat
-------------------------|---------------------------------
-------------------------|---------------------------------
-------------------------|---------------------------------

D G

5---2---3---5------------|-3-------------------------------
7---3---5---7------------|-0-------------------------------
-------------------------|-0-----(now go into verse)-------
-------------------------|-0-------------------------------
-------------------------|-2-------------------------------
-------------------------|-3-------------------------------

The chords for the verse are G C G D7
after "my brown eyed girl" it goes G Em C D7 G

then

D7

-/10-10---8---7---5--------|
---------------------------|
-/11-11---9---7---5--------|
---------------------------|
---------------------------|
