Info:
The whole verse (both of them) and the pre-chorus are played with the bass note
only, but I'll tab the whole chord if you want to play acoustic or something. :)
I think it's easier to play with capo on 1, so I'll tab the chords in relation to
the the capo, you can play it without capo, just play the chords a 1\2 up (A=A#, F=F# and so on)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

This is a pretty basic and maybe not-so-accurate tab, I will keep on trying to tab
it more accuratly in my free time, but this is meanwhile.
Enjoy, Eldad!
