Tabbed by: Neno
*This tab was made with reference to the Ice Age tab by the_messenger66, thanks for the help!*
Tuning: Drop D DADGBe
To mimic the tone in this song you can intertwine a piece of scrap paper between your
strings at the bridge.
This mimics the sound of a kalimba/mbira/whatever the instrument is in this song.

* Again, to mimic the sound of the instrument you can slightly bend the notes with a *
out of tune.
But be sure to keep the higher voice in tune! Takes some practice but its not too hard.
CHORUS
* I like to add the higher octave here but its difficult to play and not really
necessary so the notes are in brackets.
