This is my first tab and I'm sure it's accurate however, feel free 
to use as a rough guide. Any section can be 
picked at your leisure. 
There are 3 basic sections to the song excluding the outro 
(which I tabbed a little shady I know). I've 
named them verse, pre-chorus and chorus.  
Some of the metre and timing in this song 
is strange but I'm sure you just need to listen to it for rhythm and changes.  Good Luck!
