Easily one of Arcade Fire's catchiest basslines!

I'd recommend listening to the live versions on YouTube to get an idea of the rhythm of 
the song...particularly for the intro (which isn't included on the album version)

Also please note the slight variations for each verse/chorus.

Intro (for the live version, doesn't appear on album)
