I have seen a few other tabs for this song, and they were enough to get you started on figuring the song out
by yourself, but not 100% accurate, so here's this tab.
STANDARD TUNING E A D G B E
NO CAPO
Am: X02210
C: X32010
Dsus2: XX0230
Notes in parenthesis [e.x (3)] are ghost notes and are to be played softly and in the background.
The intro and verses go like this:
(Am) (C) (Dsus2)
e|----0------------------0-------0---|
B|----1------------------1-------3---|
G|----2------------------0-----2-----|
D|--2--------(2)-(0)---2-----0----(0)|
A|0------------------3----(3)--------|
E|-----------------------------------|
(Am) (C) (Dsus2)
e|----0------------------0-------0---|
B|----1------------------1-------3---|
G|----2------------------0-----2-----|
D|--2--------(2)-(0)---2-----0----(0)|
A|0------------------3----(3)--------|
E|-----------------------------------|
These two measures go right next to each other, so as soon as you play the open D, you go right back into
the Am. This pattern repeats throughout the into and both verses.
INSTEAD OF TABBING OUT THIS PATTERN THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SONG, THIS PATTERN WILL BE NOTATED AS
Am C Dsus2
INTRO:

CHORUS: (Play chords as 8th notes. Strum the whole chord on the downbeats and just the top two notes of the
chord on the upbeats. PLAY ALL OF THE CHORDS IN THE CHORUS WITH YOUR PINKIE ON THE 3RD FRET OF
THE HIGH E STRING SO THE HIGH G RINGS OUT THROUGH THE WHOLE CHORUS)
