I thought I'd write down the tabs for this since I was messing around in my dorm one day
figured it out.  I like to start out with just the basic pattern, then start adding in
harmony.
 
 
e|--------------------------|
B|--1-----------------------|
G|-----0--2--------------0--|
D|-----------2--3-----3-----|
A|-----------------3--------|
E|--------------------------|
 
 
e|--0-----------------------|
B|--1--3--1--0-----------0--|
G|-----0--2-----2--0--2--0--|
D|-----------2--3-----3-----|
A|-----------------3--------|
E|--------------------------|
 
 
Every once in awhile you can change the last chord so that it doesn't resolve.  Usually
the second to last time through the melody.
e|--0-----------------------|
B|--1--3--1--0-----------0--|
G|-----0--2-----2--0--2-----|
D|-----------2--3-----3--0--|
A|-----------------3--------|
E|--------------------------|
 
Here's the quicker part played over the top of the other two. You can play around and do
lot of different things with this, change notes to whatever sounds good but this is the
melody.
 
e|-----0--3--1--0-----0-----------------------------|
B|--1--------------1-----3--1-----1--------1--1--0--|
G|-----------------------------2-----0--------------|
D|--------------------------------------3-----------|
A|--------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------|
 
 
Keep in mind that this is just the basic tab, have fun with it both rhythmically and
if you want.
