Bad Believer Tabs

(ver. 1)
St Vincent
Tuning: Standard

Chorus: follows vocal melody and is double up the octave (?)
It's hard to tell with all the keyboards, but I tabbed it as such.
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------4-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|-6-4-------------6-4----6-4-----6-4----------------------------------------|
A|-----7-4-7-4-7-------7------7-4-----7-4---7-7------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------7----------------------------------|

B|-9-7--------------9-7----9-7-----9-7---------------------------------------|
G|-----9-6--9-6-9-------9------9-6-----9-6---9-9-----------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------9---------------------------------|

Verse riff
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---4-6-7-6-4-----4---------------------------------------------------------|
E|-7-----------5-7---4-5-7-2--2-0-2--2-4-2-0---------------------------------|

Up the octave:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---6-8-9-8-6-----6---------------------------------------------------------|
D|-9-----------7-9---6-7-9--4-4---4--4-6-4-----------------------------------|
A|------------------------------7----------7---------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

I also did my best to figure out the chords in the bridge section...
I couldn't really figure out what the third one was (maybe E augmented,
but the voicings on the keyboard move around which makes it even harder to tell.
E7 works pretty well.
Anyway, what I've put sounds close-ish and it changes the second time around:

E Maj7 C# Min7 E???? F#min E Maj7 C#Min7 E?2.0 F#min E7
e|-7---11------0-----2-----7------11-----2-----2-----------------------------|
B|-9---9-------0-----2-----9------9------0-----2-----5-----------------------|
G|-8---9-------3-----2-----8------9------3-----2-----7-----------------------|
D|-9---9-------2-----4-----9------9------2-----4-----6-----------------------|
A|-7---11------2-----4-----7------11-----2-----4-----7-----------------------|
E|-----9-------0-----2------------9------0-----2-----------------------------|

Outro:
Repeat
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-2-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-2-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-0-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
