Im a big fan of the Walkmen and this song is one of my favorites. 
Its pretty simple once you get a hang out it! This isnt perfect but 
hopefully will get you started with it.

 There are basically four chords and I dont know the actual 
name of them so I am just going give them  Basic name even 
though its not what it is called
