So apparently there's some tone
deaf people posting tabs on here.
So heres a pretty damn good tab for tongue

Intro rift is BASS, NOT GUITAR, however
there are some improvised guitar noises
behind the bass rift so have at it with
whatever you want to make it sound good

Verses

G5         F5
I can't believe it

C5          G5
Talking to people here

G5           F5
Cowboys and Indians

     C5          G5
Have taken controooool

   G5            F5
It really was a wild one

    C5            G5
But summer has come and gone

  G5           F5
A lot of nice people

      C5         G5
would fade away

Guitar fill

Same as intro except a drum fill (listen to the song)

G5         F5
Hold back seasons

C5              G5
Take back the memory

G5          F5
Hold on to something

       C5              G5
Better hold on to you

   G5            F5
It really was a wild one

    C5           G5
But summer has come and gone

  G5           F5
A lot of nice people

      C5         G5
would fade away

Same guitar fill as before
