Another user did a pretty good job of tabbing this song, but I found that a few of his 
notes were off. The key is to keep the bass line with your thumb during the intro. Sorry 
for the messy tab, it's my first one.

Capo: 4

( ) indicates a ghost note, or a note that is played quieter than the others. Listen to 
the song for the exact rhythm on the intro.
