Unable to add a class to an element with jQuery, can someone please assist?

For some reason I can't seem to add a class to my 'li' tag using jQuery, I've done this before but I've been stuck on this for over an hour and can't see what I'm doing wrong!?

Can anyone see a mistake in this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks! :)

<nav>
    <ul id="tabs">
        <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
    </ul>
</nav>

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $('#tabs li:first').addClass('active');
        });
    });
    </script>

You have redundant closing brackets:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#tabs li:first').addClass('active');
    }); // <-- Remove this
}); // <-- or this
