Well, here it is. Not too difficult of a song to play.
The strumming pattern is a little weird though. This is sort of what it would look like
if the 'v' was a light downstroke and the 'V' was a more accented downstroke, and of the
course the carrot thingy (^) is the upstroke:
vV vV vV v^v
(sort of similar to the strumming pattern on The Tallest Man on Earth's "The Gardener"
if that helps at all...)

Personally, I like to play the song a half step down to suit my vocal range,
but this is tabbed out to sound exactly like the song on the record.
