Ok I'm making this because there doesn't seem to be any correct tabs of this song for
bass so I am giving it to you now. This song is played with a pick on an acoustic bass
btw. I may not have spaced out the notes appropriately at specific parts so just listen 
to the song to get the flow of when to change parts. I learned this by ear, don't worry I
have good ears. :)

D|----------0--------3--2--0--------------------------|
A|-----1/2--------------------3--2--3--2--5--3--2--0--|

P.S. you don't do the last part of the verse variation and the beginning of the chorus
twice, they are the same notes, thus they are the same part.
