I'm not tabbing the instrumental intro. This tab starts just before the lyrics.

Intro: Em B

Em (022000@1)Now there's a singer everyone has heard
EmAt (022000@1)night he turns into a mocking bird
                                       BIf (x2444x@1)I whistle in the dark he'll do that too.
  EmI (022000@1)met him on the road at the close of day
GTalk (320003@1)like me, walk this way
