NOTE: this is not EXACTLY how they play it. this version sounds very similar to the
It sounds very nice by itself, but if you play along with the song they have slightly
picking. Play around with it and you can probably get it pretty close to how they really 
it.

Another thing, it sounds better if you play it fast;)
If these notes are too hard to get your fingers on, or if the picking's too tricky, here's a
less accurate but much easier version, which is basically the melody
by itself:

e|-0-0-0-----0-0-0-----0-0-0----0-0-0------------------------------|
B|-------3--------3----------3--------3--0-0---0-0--0-0-0-1-3------|
G|-------------------------------------------0---------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------3-----3----3--------------|
E|-1---------1---------3--------3----------------------------------|

it is much less accurate, so...

The first one is the intro and the first section/verse. repeat it a couple of times, and 
rest of the song builds around these notes. I don’t have the rest yet, but when I do i'll 
put it up.

Hope it works out
