I listened to the song closely and during the intro the guitarist is sliding through
first chord shapes. There is also a bit of delay. In order to do that, you have to use
shapes than what have already been listed (and, also, you'll need an amp with effects to
the delay). So...here's the tab in the best form I can give you (this is my first atempt
a tab).
Enjoy. This is a great new band. I had the chance to see them when they toured with Iron
Wine. Check out their debut LP on Sub Pop - several great tracks along with Funeral.
not 100% on the lyrics, though I think they're closer than what I've seen before.)

This intro continues through the first verse:
I'm coming up only to hold you under
And coming up only to show you're wrong
And to know you is hard; we wonder...
To know you all wrong; we warn.
Ooh oooh ooooh ooh
Ooh oooh ooooh ooh

Really too late to call,
So we wait for morning
To wake you is all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they warn.

And every occasion I'll be ready for the funeral
And every occasion once more it's called the funeral
Every occasion oh I'm ready for the funeral
And every occasion oh one billion day funeral
(Intro)
I'm coming up only to show you’re down for
And coming up only to show you’re wrong
(Verse)
To the outside, the dead leaves lay on the lawn
For they don't have trees to hang upon.
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
