This version is for 2 guitars.
One guitar might work (in that case, you will play the tabs for Guitar 1) but 2 guitars
would obviously sound more like the album.
This is my interpretation.
I tabbed it by ear, so it might not be 100% accurate.
 
Standard tuning.
No capo.
 
Intro:
 
Guitar 1:
 
The finger-picking that repeats throughout most of the song is this:
 
It's like playing Fmaj7 and Am-shaped chords but on the 3rd fret, if that makes sense
(i'm not good at guitar jargon, sorry).

It's all about... It's all about what you wanted
 
The rest of the song is basically the same thing. I couldn't figure out the very last
chorus though.
If anyone could figure it out, post it in the comments or something.

the chorus is actually a little bit different than you posted it. The first two "it's all about" are correct with the G - Bm riff The second two are picking on standard C (x32010) and standard G (320003) and then the end of the chorus Am D what you wanted am i what you wanted? the ending of the song is also Am - D
