Tabbed by: Michael McNulty
Email: naw

this is a basic version of this song.
meric from the dodos adds a lot of nice flourishes that i didn't/couldn't tab out.
great song.

the part after the bridge is just the chorus chords with oooooohs over them
i think that's all the different parts, just put them together!
